A shell and tube heat exchanger is the most common type of heat exchanger in oil refineries and other large chemical processes, and is suited for high-pressure and/or high-temperature applications. As its name implies, this type of heat exchanger consists of a shell (a vessel) with a bundle of tubes inside it. One fluid runs through the tubes, and the second runs over the tubes (through the shell) to transfer heat between the two fluids. The set of tubes is called a tube bundle, and may be composed by several types of tubes: plain, longitudinally finned, etc.
