CFD simulation of shell and tube heat exchanger. Comparison between the k-epsilon and SST turbulence models. Comparisons between geometries with and without baffle clearances. Baffle clearances reduce temperature peaks along the exchanger. Baffle clearances reduce pressure drop on the baffle window.
