In a refinery 100,000 lb/h of fuel oil is to be cooled from 200°F to 100°F by heat exchange with 70,000 lb/h of cooling water that is available at 60◦F. A shell-and-tube exchanger will be used. The heat capacities are 0.6 Btu/lbm · °F for the oil and 1.0 Btu/lbm · °F for the water.
(a) Use stream energy balances to calculate the duty for the exchanger and the outlet temperature of the cooling water.
(b) Determine whether or not a 1-2 exchanger can be used for this service. If not, how many shell passes will be needed?
(c) Refer to Table 3.5 and obtain an approximate value for the overall heat-transfer coefficient. Use this value to calculate the heat-transfer surface area for the exchanger.
(d) If 3/4-in., 16 BWG tubes with a length of 20 ft are used in the heat exchanger, how many tubes will be required to supply the surface area calculated in part (c)?
