Draw the Temperature & compute the LMTD for CO-CURRENT & COUNTER-CURRENT flow heat exchanger. A single-pass tubular type heat exchanger heats air from 35 C to 80 C. Exhaust gas from DIESEL engine at 350 C is used as heating medium. If the final temperature of exhaust gas leaving the heat exchanger is 140 C, what is the LMTD?
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.
