Recent developments in heat exchanger design have been focused
on complex heat exchanger flow arrangements and/or methods
for determining effectiveness of such devices.
A 1-4 TEMA E shell-and-tube heat exchanger with
two baffles; elementary units presented as boxes, (b) irreducible
configuration obtained after several reduction steps; units
A, B, D and E consist each of at least two elementary unmixed-unmixed
crossflow exchangers (for example, A consists of A1 and A2)
and C and F consist of a single elementary unmixed-unmixed crossflow
exchanger (after: Sekulic, D.P., Shah, R.K., and Pignotti, A,
