Performance characteristics of a novel shell and tube heat exchanger with shell side interstitial twisted tapes for viscous fluids application

•Thermal-hydraulic characteristics of heat exchanger with shell side interstitial twisted tapes.•Results indicate strong potential of such heat exchanger where low pressure drop is key requirement.•Correlations estimating Nusselt number and Darcy friction factor are proposed. A unique shell and tube...
