Question

If a Shell and tube type heat exchanger made of stainless steel with a 4m2 heat exchange area is purchased for $ 16200 in 2020, what will be the estimated cost of a similar heat exchanger with 8 m2 area to be purchased in the same year?
A.) $ 24000
B.) $ 23070
C.) $ 21060
D.) $ 28040
E.) $ 24600

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given data as per the question

First heat exchanger area = 4 m2

Cost of first heat exchanger = $16200

Area of second heat exchanger = 8 m2

calculation

We know that according to sixth-tenth rule.
