this paper shows that stream resistance coefficients mainly depend on the cross-sectional area and mass flow rate of different flow paths when crossflow Reynolds number Re(Tc)is high enough.The effects of geometrical shape of cross-sectional area can be neglected.Therefore pressure drop on the shell-side of a TEMA-F heat exchanger can be Predicted by using Divided-Flow Method for TEME-E heat exchanger.Experimental study was carried out.The experimental values of pressure drop and predicted values appear to be in good agreement.
