shown below, water at a rate of 45,000 (forty five thousand) kg/h is heated from 80°C to 150°C in a two-shell and eight-pass tube heat exchanger with a total surface area of 925 m². The value of the correction factor for the cross flow heat exchanger is 0.97. The hot flue gas has thermophysical properties such as air entering at 350°C and exiting at 175°C. Determine the overall heat transfer coefficient.

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.
