Heat Transfer Through Submerged Helical Coil In Agitated Vessel Objective: Determination of coil side heat transfer coefficient through submerged helical coil in the vessel under steady state conditions. Motivation Tube coils offer a substantial amount of heat transfer area at a considerably low cost. Coils have lower wall resistance higher coil side HT coefficient. Because of turns of helix geometry turbulence is generated inside the tube and hence the helical coil arrangement’s heat transfer coefficient is better than corresponding straight coil. Advantages of a helical coil heat exchanger lie in its compact size and less expensive Theory: The tubes are coiled into helices in which inlet and outlet are conveniently located side by side. When such coils are used with mechanical agitation they tend to increase the side wall heat transfer coefficient. We use the Sieder Tate Correlation, and not the Dittus-Boelter Equation because though the Dittus-Boelter is easier to solve, it is less accurate when there is a large temperature difference across the fluid, i.e., when the temperature differences between bulk fluid and heat transfer surface are large, this equation fails to give accurate results. As far as mechanical agitation is concerned, heat transfer through the conducting surface improves with agitation as contact with the heat transfer area is improved. The correlation describing the Nusselt no. for heat transfer to fluids in vessel with mechanical agitation heated or cooled by submerged coils is as follows:
