🔍 Key Concepts

• waste heat boiler heat transfer between hot exhaust gas and waterside • effect of tube shape (sinuous/curved vs straight) on gas flow: velocity, turbulence, and surface contact • relationship between turbulence, deposits, and heat transfer efficiency

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to a fluid (exhaust gas) when it flows through a tube that bends and curves instead of being straight. Does this mainly change its speed, its mixing/turbulence, or its noise? • Which of the listed effects would most directly improve the boiler’s thermal efficiency: changing gas velocity, reducing fouling, reducing noise, or changing the heat transfer rate? How are those connected? • In practical operation, what problem do operators have with heat transfer surfaces in exhaust gas boilers over time, and how could a sinuous path through the tubes influence that problem?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option most directly affects overall heat transfer efficiency in a waste heat boiler. • Consider whether increased turbulence in a sinuous tube would tend to scrub surfaces cleaner or make them dirtier over time. • Ask yourself which options are primary design objectives for a waste heat boiler (heat transfer and cleanliness) versus secondary comfort issues (noise, pulsations).
