Draw the Temperature & compute the LMTD for CO-CURRENT & COUNTER-CURRENT flow heat exchanger. A single-pass tubular type heat exchanger heats air from 35 C to 80 C. Exhaust gas from DIESEL engine at 350 C is used as heating medium. If the final temperature of exhaust gas leaving the heat exchanger is 140 C, what is the LMTD?
