ABSTRACT:
A shell unit, for use in a shell and tube heat exchanger, includes a shell having shell ports whose flow areas are adjustable. The unit comprises an annular distributor having an annulus which surrounds the shell such that fluid may flow from the annulus into the shell ports, and a nozzle in fluid communication with the annulus for feeding shell fluid into the annulus. A means is provided in the shell unit for adjusting the fluid flow area of the ports. In one embodiment, the means for adjusting the flow area is an insert rotatably mounted within the shell which may be rotated to at least partially cover the ports a selected amount.
