Hello,everyone!

As you may have designed chiller or used chiller. Do you know the ordinary water velocity in shell and tube heat exchanger. I have read a lot of books, mostly suggest it to be about 2m/s.It's said by ASHRAE that no damage will happen to the copper tube even the water velocity exceeds 3m/s. I wanna know your experience from your design or your application, especially in flooded chiller.

Your any comment will be appreciated!
