It is desired to cool a fluid from 75\deg C to 50\deg C flowing through the shell of an I.C.(1 pass through shell and 2 through tubes). The equipment has 120 tubes, which have: an external diameter, Do =0.0254 m, internal diameter, Di =0.02 m and a length of 3 m. The cooling medium is water, which flows inside tubes at a rate of 10 kg/s. The cooling water enters at 30\deg C and its temperature is estimated to increase to 42\deg C.
