An engineer designed a double pipe heat exchanger where the hot fluid (c,=2400 J/kg.K) enters at a temperature of 100 °C with a flowrate of O.1 kg/s and is wanted to leave at a temperature of 60 °C. On the other hand, the cold fluid (c,=1200 J/kg.K) enters the heat exchanger at a temperature of 30 °C with a flowrate of 0.2 kg/s and is wanted to be heated up to 70 °C. Show that whether this design is realistic or not. If yes, what is the flow configuration (i.e. counter or parallel flow)?

A 2 - shell pass & 4 - tube pass heat exchanger is designed to heat water from 40 C to 90 C flowing inside the tubes at a rate of 7.5 kg/sec while hot gases flowing in the shell at a rate of 10.42 kg/sec with temperature leaving the heat exchanger at 110 C. Consider the specific heat of water and gas of 4.2 kJ/kg K & 1.08 kJ/kg K, respectively. Draw the temp-profile showing the multi-pass effect and determine the temperature of gas entering the heat exchanger.

QUESTION 6 En. Karim recently bought a 2-shell passes and 12-tube passes type heat exchanger for his metal factory to reduce the hot oil (cp = 2200 J/kg.K) temperature. The hot oil enters the heat exchanger through the shell passes at 160 °C with a flow rate of 0,2 kg/s. The coolant fluid used to reduce the hot oil temperature is water (cp = 4180 J/kg.K). Water flows through the heat exchanger pipe at 18 °C and at flow rate of 0.1 kg/s. The tube inside the heat exchanger is made of 1.8 cm diameter copper tube and the length is 3 m. If the overall heat transfer coefficient is 340 W/m².K, evaluate and discuss your finding for the following parameters; i. The maximum rate of heat transfer, ii. The actual rate of heat transfer, iii. The outlet temperatures of the water, and iv. The outlet temperatures of the oil.
