Question

A   2 - shell pass & 4 - tube pass heat exchanger is designed to heat water from 40 C to 90 C flowing inside the tubes at a rate of 7.5 kg/sec while hot gases flowing in the shell at a rate of 10.42 kg/sec with temperature leaving the heat exchanger at 110 C. Consider the specific heat of water and gas of 4.2 kJ/kg K & 1.08 kJ/kg K, respectively. Determine:
a)    correction factor or CF (show the actual plotting of CF on temp-correction chart)
b)    true LMTD
