Question: A horizontal Shell and tube exchanger is to be designed to condense 7 . 5 6 kg / sec isobutane at 8 2 7 kN

A horizontal Shell and tube exchanger is to be designed to condense 7.56 kg/sec isobutane at 827 kN/m2, using cooling water on the tube side. The water is available at 300 K and is required in another process at 312.5K. in outer diameter (19.05mm),14 s.w.g.(2.11 mm Wall) tubes are to be used on 1 in (25.4 mm) square pitch and the total scale resistance may be taken as 0.00053 m2K/W. What size of the exchanger should be specified?
