Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Design

Job ID: 38953250

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I require a specialist to utilize COMSOL to design and optimize a shell and tube heat exchanger for use in cardio pulmonary bypass (CPB) machines. The heat exchanger will be dealing with two fluids: blood and water.

The project involves:
- Utilizing an existing COMSOL design (air and water) as a baseline
- Optimizing the design to assess the impact of different materials and pipe diameters
- Considering various types of flow and pipe configurations, such as dimpled and smooth pipes
- Focusing on the specific demands of CPB machines for blood warming and cooling

The ideal candidate will have:
- Extensive experience with COMSOL and heat exchanger design
- A deep understanding of fluid dynamics, particularly in relation to blood and water
- Knowledge of different materials and their suitability for this application
- Ability to provide expert advice on flow types and pipe configurations

Ultimately, I am looking for a comprehensive and efficient design that meets the requirements of this critical medical application.
