A single-pass heat exchanger condenses steam at 1 atm on the shell side
A single-pass heat exchanger condenses steam at 1 atm on the shell side and heats water from 10?C to 30?C on the tube side with U = 2500 W/m2K. The tubing is thin-walled, 5 cm in diameter, and 2 m in length. (a) Your boss asks whether the exchanger should be counterflow or parallel-flow. How do you advise her? Evaluate: (b) the LMTD; (c) ? mH2O; (d) e. [e 0.222.]
