title: Performance of a shell-type heat exchanger in extracorporeal circulation.
abstract: Tests were performed on a "shell" type heat exchanger used in a simulated extracorporeal circulation. The counter flow mode was the most efficient pattern and recommendations are made on which flow pattern should be employed with low water flow rates.
