Abstract
The heat exchangers are used frequently in the oil industry to heat, cool, condense or evaporate fluids of services or processes. The most used exchangers are of shell and tube, where the fluids are placed in thermic contact without mixing. In this study, two shell and tube exchangers were used with deflectors inclinations of 0° and 20°. In regard to the cross section, the water flowed through the tubes and a thin hydrocarbon, of great refinery importance, through the shell. The SST and k-e methods were applied to describe the turbulence
