Question: Q . 5 In a counter - flow double pipe heat exchanger water flows through a copper tube ( 1 9 mm O . D
Q In a counterflow double pipe heat exchanger water flows through a copper tube mm OD and mm I.D at a flow rate of The oil flows through the annulus formed by inner copper tube and outer steel tube mm OD and mm I.D The steel tube is insulated from outside. The oil enters at and is cooled from to whereas water enters at Consider fouling factor for the water and oil sides as and
