heat transfer by conduction's examples in chemical engineering industry?
Chemical processes commonly use shell and tube heat exchangers, where a shell contains a relatively large number of tubes. One fluid flows inside the tubes, while the other fluid flows outside of the tubes. Heat flow through the tube walls is by conduction heat transfer. Chemical processes also commonly have hot or cold fluids flowing through insulated pipes. The heat transfer through the pipe wall and the insulation on the outside of the pipe wall is by conduction heat transfer.
