From the current situation, the Heat Exchangers uses extreme commonly are tube and Shell heat exchangers. The most usual uses of Shell and tube heat exchangers are electricity creation, cooling system of hydraulic fluid, oil in motors, transmissions, and hydraulic power packs. Shell and tube heat exchangers are made of the casing using a bunch of tubes with inside. The desirable outcome of the paper is to figure out the speed of heat transport using hot water as the hot liquid. The target of this paper is to mimic a tube and shell heat exchanger and also to assess blood flow and temperatures from the tubes and shell by employing applications tool Ansys. The simulation is composed of modeling and meshing cross section of tube and shell heat exchanger utilizing computational fluid dynamics (CFD).
