Question: A single shell pass heat exchanger will be used to condense 1 0 k g s of saturated organic vapor ( Tsat = 8 0

A single shell pass heat exchanger will be used to condense 10kgs of saturated organic vapor (Tsat =80C;hfg=600kJkg) with cooling water ), inlet temperature of 15C, flows in the tubes at 60kgs. The overall heat transfer coefficient is 1800Wm2K. The thin-walled tubes used are 25mm in diameter and 5m long pumber of of cooling water is 3ms. What are the number of tubes per pass and that as 1.0 for consere required? You can take correction factor for logarithmic mean temperature as 1.0 for condenser.
