Flowing juice like 0.5kg / h enters the parallel-flow heat exchanger at 293 K and is heated by 400K water vapor (Cp = 1.76kJ / kgK), which is 2.5 kg / s. The exit temperature of the juice is 360 K, the area where heat transfer takes place Calculate the efficiency and heat transfer of the heat exchanger if it is 20 m2 and the overall heat transfer coefficient is 280W / m2K. (physical properties of fruit juice will be considered the same as water).
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.
