🔍 Key Concepts

• Common design of shell-and-tube heat exchangers used on marine engines and machinery • Purpose of baffles in directing coolant flow and supporting tubes • Difference between special-purpose baffle shapes and the standard, widely-used pattern

💭 Think About

• Which baffle type would most effectively force the cooling water to flow back and forth across the tubes, increasing heat transfer? • Among the options, which shapes sound like specialized designs versus a basic, repeatable pattern that’s easy to manufacture and clean? • Think about what ship operators and builders would choose for reliability, ease of maintenance, and good overall performance in most systems.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option describes a simple, repeating pattern that can be stacked along the shell length • Consider which baffle type best creates a zig-zag (cross-flow) path for the shell-side fluid over the tubes • Eliminate options that seem more like solid plates with minimal flow direction control or limited use cases
