The characteristics of heat exchanger design are the procedure of specifying a design, heat transfer area and pressure drops and checking whether the assumed design satisfies all requirements or not. The purpose of this thesis work is how to design the oil cooler (heat exchanger) especially for shell-and-tube heat exchanger which is the majority type of liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger. General design considerations and design procedure are also illustrated in this thesis. In design calculation, the HTRI code and Ansys software are used. Heat transfer concepts and complex relationships involved in such exchanger are also presented. The primary aim of this design is to obtain a high heat transfer rate without exceeding the allowable pressure drop. This HTRI code and computer package is highly useful to design the heat exchanger and to compare the design. With in the project work , the thermal and pressure drop calculations are done by using the empirical formula, as per TEMA and verified with HTRI software package (USA). Heat exchanger is design by using different pipe materials such as brass and copper materials.
