Concept explainers

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.

Question 4 A thin-walled double pipe, counter-flow heat exchanger is to be used to cool oil (cp = 2.2 kJ/kg.°C) from 150 °C to 40 °C at a rate of 2.3 kg/s by water (c, = 4.18 kJ/kg.ºC) that enters at 20 °C at a rate of 1.4 kg/s. The diameter of the tube is 13 cm and its length is 60 m. Determine the overall heat transfer coefficient of this heat exchanger using; i. logarithmic mean temperature difference LMTD method, and ii. NTU method.
The clean U for an exchanger is 770 BTU/(hr 0 F ft2). Its tube area is 550 ft2. After operating for several months, it is heating water from 40 0F to 150 0F at a flow rate of 200 GPM with a heating fluid on the shell entering at 300 0F and exiting at 170 0 F. Has the overall U decreased significantly? how many 1.0 inch diameter, 20 ft long tubes would it take to equal the 550 ft2 area?
4. The following heat exchanger uses 10 kg/s of hot air to heat and boil liquid water into saturated steam at 500 kPa. (a) Find the steam flow (kg/s) (b) Determine whether the process is allowed by the second law (Answer: It is not!) (c) On the surface, the process looks OK as Tair>Twater at both the inlet and outlet. You should be able to see the problem if you sketch the air and the water temperature profiles as you move left to right through the exchanger. (Hints: The air will be essentially a straight line, while the water will not. For the water, think about what happens when it is changing phase.) This is called a pinch point violation, and it is a very important design consideration in advanced combined cycle systems and in nuclear power plants.

Consider the same problem in which an axial compressor with a mean diameter of 0.8 m is being designed to run at 3000 rpm. The whirl velocities at the inlet and outlet are 5m/s and 30 m/s, respectively. The air mass flow rate through the compressor is 2 kg/s at a temperature of 27 °C. Assume C, of air equal to 1000 J/kg-K and Cy = 718 J/kg-K. The pressure ratio is equal to O 1.037 O 1.065 O 1.370 O 1.873

The flow rate to the rector is 100 GPM (0.2228 ft³/s,) and the line, schedule 40-carbon steel (a = 0.0018 in). The pressure in the vessel is 15 psig and the reactor is pressurized to 65 psig. The flow into the reactor is 25 ft below the level in the vessel as shown in the drawing. The centrifugal pump is located 5 ft below the level in the vessel.

The system consists of: 1. Stainless steel pipes with a diameter of 5 cm and a total length of 200 meters. 2. Four control valves distributed throughout the system. 3. Two centrifugal pumps in series, each with an efficiency of 80%. Over the past few weeks, a pressure of 20 bar has been recorded at the inlet of the first pump, but only 15 bar at the outlet of the second pump. Furthermore, the flow rate has decreased from 10 m³/h to 7 m³/h. It has been noted that one of the control valves is showing signs of wear and may not be functioning properly. Calculates the pressure loss in the system, taking into account the length of the pipes, the material, the valves and the pumps.
