Numerical simulation of heat transfer performance of spiral wound heat exchanger under sloshing condition.

ABSTRACT: LNG floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) unit is a new type of floating production unit developed for offshore natural gas fields. It performs the functions of natural gas extraction, pretreatment, liquefaction, and storage. In this study, the heat transfer characteristics of a spiral-wound heat exchanger were studied using numerical simulations, which provides a basis for equipment selection and structural optimization of spiral-wound heat exchangers. The main research contents and conclusions are as follows. Under land-based simulation conditions, the heat transfer coefficient of the shell side of the spiral-wound heat exchanger decreases with an increase in the winding angle of the heat exchange tube, decreases with an increase in the spacing of the heat exchange tube, and
