- Distilled water is being cooled by a 20% propylene glycol solution in a 1-1/U counter flow plate and frame heat exchanger. The water enters the heat exchanger at 50°F at a flow rate of 86,000 lbm/h. For safety reasons, the water outlet temperature should never be colder than 35°F. The propylene glycol solution enters the heat exchanger at 28°F with a flow rate of 73,000 lbm/h. The port distances on the heat exchanger are Lv = 35 in and Lh = 18 in. The plate width is Lw = 21.5 2 in. The plate thickness is 0.04 in with a plate pitch of 0.12 in. The chevron angle is 30° and the plate enlargement factor is 1.17. All ports have a 2 in diameter. The fouling factor of the propylene glycol solution can be estimated as 2 ×10−5 h-ft2-°F/Btu. a. Determine the maximum number of plates the heat exchanger can have while ensuring that the water outlet temperature never drops below 35°F. b.

The shell has a diameter of 27 in and a length of 16ft. The tubes in the heat exchanger are ¾-in 15 BWG tubes on a 1-in triangular pitch. The purposeof this problem is to investigate how the number of baffles impacts the heat transfer and thepressure drop on the shell side of the heat exchanger. Calculate the shell-side convective heattransfer coefficient and pressure drop for the case where the heat exchanger has 10 baffles. Repeatthe calculation for 20 baffles. Then determine thea. Ratio of the shell-side convective heat transfer coefficient for the 20-baffle heat exchangerto the 10-baffle heat exchangerb.
