A shell-and-tube heat exchanger with 2-shell passes and 12-tube passes is used to heat water (cp = 4.18 kJ/kg·K) in the tubes from 20°C to 70°C at a rate of 4.5 kg/s. Heat is supplied by hot oil (cp = 2.3 kJ/kg·K) that enters the shell side at 170°C at a rate of 10 kg/s. For a tube-side overall heat transfer coefficient of 350 W/m2.K, determine the hea

Question

A shell-and-tube heat exchanger with 2-shell passes and 12-tube passes is used to heat water (cp = 4.18 kJ/kg·K) in the tubes from 20°C to 70°C at a rate of 4.5 kg/s. Heat is supplied by hot oil (cp = 2.3 kJ/kg·K) that enters the shell side at 170°C at a rate of 10 kg/s. For a tube-side overall heat transfer coefficient of 350 W/m2.K, determine the heat transfer surface area on the tube side. Assume the correction factor F to be 1. (Round the answer to two decimal places.)
