A pulse-jet baghouse is desired for a finished cement plant. Calculate the number of bags required to filter 500 m3/min of air with a dust loading of 3.0 g/m3. Each bag is 3.0 m long with a 0.13 m diameter. If the average pressure drop is 1.0 kPa and the main fan is 60% efficient, calculate the fan power in kW. If the pulse air volumetric flow rate is 0.5% of the filter airflow rate and the pulse air pressure is 6.0 atm, calculate the power drawn by a 50% efficient compressor (in kW)
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.
