Chapter 12, Problem 1ASRQ

While discussing the reasons for resurfacing a cylinder head; Technician A says it should be resurfaced to make it flat and very smooth so the head gasket can seal properly during engine assembly. Technician B says that it can be resurfaced to raise the compression. Who is correct?

  1. Technician A

  • Technician B
  • Both A and B
  • Neither A nor B

    ! Required information Air at 25°C (cp=1006 J/kg.K) is to be heated to 58°C by hot oil at 80°C (cp = 2150 J/kg.K) in a cross-flow heat exchanger with air mixed and oil unmixed. The product of heat transfer surface area and the overall heat transfer coefficient is 750 W/K and the mass flow rate of air is twice that of oil. NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. Air Oil 80°C Determine the effectiveness of the heat exchanger.
    In an industrial facility, a counter-flow double-pipe heat exchanger uses superheated steam at a temperature of 155°C to heat feed water at 30°C. The superheated steam experiences a temperature drop of 70°C as it exits the heat exchanger. The water to be heated flows through the heat exchanger tube of negligible thickness at a constant rate of 3.47 kg/s. The convective heat transfer coefficient on the superheated steam and water side is 850 W/m²K and 1250 W/m²K, respectively. To account for the fouling due to chemical impurities that might be present in the feed water, assume a fouling factor of 0.00015 m²-K/W for the water side. The specific heat of water is determined at an average temperature of (30 +70)°C/2 = 50°C and is taken to be J/kg.K. Cp= 4181 Water Steam What would be the required heat exchanger area in case of parallel-flow arrangement? The required heat exchanger area in case of parallel-flow arrangement is 1m².
    A single-pass crossflow heat exchanger is used to cool jacket water (cp = 1.0 Btu/lbm.°F) of a diesel engine from 190°F to 140°F, using air (Cp = 0.245 Btu/lbm.°F) at inlet temperature of 90°F. Both air flow and water flow are unmixed. If the water and air mass flow rates are 85500 lbm/h and 400,000 lbm/h, respectively, determine the log mean temperature difference for this heat exchanger. Assume the correction factor F to be 0.92. Air flow (unmixed) Water flow (unmixed) The log mean temperature difference of the heat exchanger is °F.
