. Determine the overall heat transfer coefficient and flow rate required while using a heat exchanger , the water is enetered at 20◦C through the tubes of small single pass and the water comes out with a temperature at 40◦C. 25 kg/min of steam condenses at 60◦C on the shel side ,the area of the exchanger is 12 m2. (The latent heat, hfg, is 2358.7 kJ/kg at 60◦C.)
Heat Exchangers
Heat exchangers are the types of equipment that are primarily employed to transfer the thermal energy from one fluid to another, provided that one of the fluids should be at a higher thermal energy content than the other fluid.
Heat Exchanger
The heat exchanger is a combination of two words ''Heat'' and ''Exchanger''. It is a mechanical device that is used to exchange heat energy between two fluids.
1. Determine the overall heat transfer coefficient and flow rate required while using a heat exchanger , the water is enetered at 20◦C through the tubes of small single pass
and the water comes out with a temperature at 40◦C. 25 kg/min of steam condenses at 60◦C on the shel side ,the area of the exchanger is 12 m2. (The latent
heat, hfg, is 2358.7 kJ/kg at 60◦C.)
2 . You have unpainted aluminum siding on your house and the engineer
has based a heat loss calculation on U = 5 W/m2K. You discover that
air pollution levels are such that Rf is 0.0005 m2K/W on the siding.
Should the engineer redesign the siding?
