Q.1 Hot oil is passed through a double pipe heat exchanger at 150C. The hot oil is used to pre heat cold water which enters at 30C. The exit temperature at the hot oil is 110C.
a) If the specific heat of hot oil and water is 0.41kJkg-1K-1 and 4.184kJkg-1K-1 and mass flow rates of hot oil and water is 1200kgh and 1286kgh calculate heat capacity and log mean temperature difference for both co-current and counter current scenario.
b) If the specific heat of hot oil and water is equal and mass flow rates of hot oil and water is 1200kgh and 1286kgh calculate the log mean temperature difference for both co-current and counter current scenario.
