I'm currently working on a project of heat exchanger with helical baffles with both water entering in the tube and the annulus side. Dimensions of the geometry is used attached here. I am just confused because only a little temperature change for both tube and annulus side are present. Is it just because the dimensions are too small, or did i miss to consider some of the parameters? I
