Abstract
A method for transferring heat between two fluids comprises (1) flowing the first fluid in an upright diamond shaped tube, and (2) flowing the second fluid therearound the tube over upper and lower surfaces of the diamond shaped tube formed at an angle to the horizon that is greater than the angle of repose of the second fluid therearound the tube for preventing accumulation of second fluid sediment on top and stagnant gases on the bottom of the tube. A novel heat exchanger tube is also disclosed.
