3.2) In Problem 3.1 the inner pipe is made of 3-in. schedule 40 carbon steel (k = 45 W/m - K). The cold fluid flows through the inner pipe with a heat-transfer coefficient of 600 W/m² - K, while the hot fluid flows in the annulus with a heat-transfer coefficient of 1000 W/m². K. The exchanger duty is 140 kW. Calculate

(3.1) In a double-pipe heat exchanger, the cold fluid will enter at 30°C and leave at 60°C, while the hot fluid will enter at 100°C and leave at 70°C. Find the mean temperature difference in the heat exchanger for: (a) Co-current flow. (b) Counter-current flow. Ans. (a) 30.83°C. (3.2) In Problem 3.1 the inner pipe is made of 3-in. schedule 40 carbon steel (k = 45 W/m K). The cold fluid flows through the inner pipe with a heat-transfer coefficient of 600 W/m² K, while the hot fluid flows in the annulus with a heat-transfer coefficient of 1000 W/m² K. The exchanger duty is 140 kW. Calculate: (a) The average wall temperature of the inner pipe. (b) The clean overall heat-transfer coefficient. (c) The design overall heat-transfer coefficient using a fouling factor of 0.002 h ft² °F/Btu for each stream. (Note the units.) (d) The total length of pipe required in the heat exchanger for counter-current flow. (e) The total length of pipe required in the heat exchanger for co-current flow. Ans. (a) 71.2°C. (b) 330 W/m² K. (c) 264 W/m² K. (d) 47.5 m.
