The condenser of a large thermal power plant is a body-tube type heat exchanger consisting of a single body and 30000 pieces of pipes, each with two passes. The pipes have an inner diameter of 25 mm and are thin-walled and steam,11000 W/m2 .It condenses on the outer surfaces of the pipe with a convection coefficient of K. Heat the heat transfer required by the modifier is 2000 MW and is provided by the flow of water through the pipes at a flow rate of 30000 kg/s. Water enters at a temperature of 20 °C, while steam condenses at 50 °C. Calculate the temperature of the cooling water coming out of the condenser? Specify the required pipe length per pass? Properties of water in Tort = 300 K; Cp=4180 j/ups, μ= 855×10-6 Ns/m2,k=0.613 W/mK, Pr = 5.83.
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.
