An economizer operates with heat losses amounting to 10% of the heat absorbed from the dry flue gasses passing through it. The condition of operation is: temperature of the flue gas at the economizer entering is 650°C and leaves at 350°C, the mean specific heat of the flue gases is 1.006 KJ/kg-K, mass of flue gases is 117,500 kg/hr. Temperature of water entering is 80°C and leaving is 120°C. Find the mass of water that may be heated per hour
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.
