PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK, DO NOT USE CHAT GPT. AI GENERATED ANSWERS WILL BE DOWNVOTED. Decide whether a 1 shell 2 tube pass heat exchanger will be suitable, and then calculate the heat transfer area required for the heat exchanger, based on an overall heat transfer coefficient of 650Wm2.K.
A process stream, with an inlet temperature of 110C is to be cooled to 488C. The process stream has a flowrate of 33000kgh. Cooling water is available at 25C for cooling purposes. The cooling water outlet temperature should not exceed 36C.
The physical properties of the process and cooling water stream are as follows:
\table[[,Process stream,Cooling water],[Density (kg*m^(-3)),732,992],[Heat capacity (J*kg^(-1)*K^(-1)),3320,4190],[Viscosity (N*s*m^(-2)),3.7\times 10^(-4),8.0\times 10^(-4)],[Thermal conductivity (W*m^(-1)*K^(-1)),0.136,0.613],[Fouling coefficient (W*m^(-2)*K^(-1)),6000,3000],[Allowable prossure drop (kPa),60,60]]
Tubes (k=45(W)*m-1*K-1) with an outside diameter (OD)=19.05mm, wall thickness of 2mm and length =4.88m, are available. A triangular pitch of 1.25OD has been
