Question
1) For a concentric counter-flow heat exchanger, hot oil is coming in the tube of the
shell/tube heat exchanger and it's cooled by water that surrounds it in the shell.
Calculate what is the required length of the heat exchanger tube in order to perform
the necessary cooling. Assume there is negligible heat loss to the surroundings and
negligible conductive heat resistance between the two fluids.
Mass flow rate of oil = 0.17 kg/s
Oil heat capacity = 2375 J/kg-ºC
Oil convective heat transfer coefficient = 39.7 W/m²-°C
Oil enters tube at temperature = 130 °C
Oil leaves tube at temperature = 83 °C
Water convective heat transfer coefficient = 2190 W/m²-°C
Water enters shell at temperature 15 °C
Water leaves shell at temperature = 74 °C
Inner diameter = 4.5 cm
Outer diameter = 6.5 cm
