Fun heating project
I have an old shell and tube heat exchanger laying around, and am contemplating using it as a solar heater for my pool. I get plenty of sun, the bundle is a ubend, 2 pass, 30 tubes about 40 inches long...so a decent size. I'm thinking if I paint the shell Matt black to absorb more heat from the sun it would heat up the air in the shell around the tubes to get a few free degrees into the pool...what do you guys think?
