Question 1.2
A helical coil cooler is used to cool 0.5 kg.s¹ of hot oil from 100°C down to 40°C. Cooling
water with an inlet temperature of 10°C flows inside the coiled tube. The specific heat of the
oil is 2 kJ.kg¹.K¹, the specific heat of the water is 4.2 kJ.kg¹.K¹, and the density of water is
1000 kg.m.
a) Determine the lowest possible cooling water flow rate.
(0.48 kg.s¹)
b)
Determine the inside diameter of the tube if a cooling water flow of 1.5 times the minimum
is used, and the recommended flow velocity is 1 m.s. Select an appropriate tube from
the following standard sizes:
Outside diameter (mm)
Wall thickness (mm)
30
1.5
35
2.0
40
2.0
45
2.5
50
3.0
c) For a heat transfer coefficient of U = 800 W.m2.K, determine the heat transfer surface
area and the tube length of the heat exchanger. The oil inside the tank is mixed by a
stirrer and the oil temperature at any location in the tank can be assumed to be equal to
the oil outlet temperature.
(Area = 4.12 m², length = 39.7 m)
