ABSTRACT
Heat exchanger is a device that produces heat transfer from one fluid to another
fluid. This study was conducted to design a heat exchanger shell and tube type that
can be applied as a water heater for the shower water to the sulfur hot spring in
Semangat Gunung village, Tanah Karo, with hot fluid sulfur water. Heat
exchanger designed with a shell passes and two passes tubes. The hot fluid (sulfur
water) will flow through the shell and the cold fluid (water) flowing through the
tube. For the shell material is made of stainless steel and tubes is made of copper,
while the framework and fluid tanks put on the metal plate. The results obtained
are the dimensions of a heat exchanger tube of 1.4 m length and outer diameter
0.0127 m in diameter and 0.0115 m, while the dimensions of a heat exchanger
shell length of 1.4 m outside diameter 0.1524 m and diameter in 0.1464 m. The
total length of heat exchanger of 1.7 m. Heat exchanger is also coated with glass
wool and aluminum foil as insulation to prevent heat loss during the experiment.
