1. Explain and analyze log mean temperature differences for parallel and counter-flow conditions in simple, double-pipe heat exchanger
A heat exchanger is heating water from 50 0 F to 160 0 F using steam on the shell at atmospheric pressure condensing at 212 0 F. If the overall U is 710 BTU/(hr 0 F ft2) and the exchange rate is 9,000,000 BTU/hr, what tube area is needed?
In a countercurrent double-pipe heat exchanger, the hot oil entering the inner tube at 420 K with a flow rate of 60 g/s is required to be cooled to 320 K. In the space between the outer tube and the inner tube of the heat exchanger, cooling water flows at the same linear speed as the oil. Cooling water enters the heat exchanger at 290 K. The inner tube inner diameter of the heat exchanger is 25 mm and the outer tube inner diameter is 40 mm. Calculate the length of the heat exchanger. The oil side heat transfer coefficient is 1.6 kW/m2 K, and the water side heat transfer coefficient is 3.6 kW/m2 K. The densities of oil and water can be taken as 0.8 and 1.0 g/cm3, respectively, and the specific heats of oil and water can be taken as 2.0 and 4.2 kJ/kg K, respectively. Wall effects can be neglected. Flow cross-sectional area = (PI)*D2 /4 F2
what is the resulting heat transfer area if the exchanger will be parallel flow?
A heat exchanger is heating water on the tube side with steam condensing on the shell side. The water is entering at 45 0 F and exiting at 175 0 F. No instruments are available for measuring the tube side water flow but condensed steam from the shell side is being collected at a rate of 43 GPM. If the tube area of the exchanger is 350 Ft2 , and the overall heat transfer coefficient clean was 900 BTU/Hr.Ft2 F0, how much has the overall heat transfer coefficient changed, if at all? Note: Latent heat for water/steam at 212 0 F is 970 BTU per pound of water. A gallon of water weighs 8.34 lbs.
In a single-body, four-pipe transition heat exchanger, the hot combustion product gases are cooled by water.

The total heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger is 300 W / m2.K, heat transfer surface area is 10 m2.a) the heat transfer that occurs and the output temperatures of both fluids;b) find the logarithmic mean temperature difference.
Saturated propane vapor at 2:00 x 102 psia is fed to a well-insulated heat exchanger at a rate of 3:00 x 103 SCFH (standard cubic feet per hour). The propane leaves the exchanger as a saturated liquid (i.e., a liquid at its boiling point) at the same pressure. Cooling water enters the exchanger at70°F, flowing cocurrently (in the same direction) with the propane. The temperature difference between the outlet streams (liquid propane and water) is 15°F.(a) What is the outlet temperature of the water stream? (Use the Antoine equation.) Is the outlet water temperature less than or greater than the outlet propane temperature? Briefly explain.(b) Estimate the rate (Btu/h) at which heat must be transferred from the propane to the water in the heat exchanger and the required flow rate (lbm/h) of the water. (You will need to write two separate energy balances.) Assume the heat capacity of liquid water is constant at 1.00 Btu/(lb m°F) and neglect heat losses to the outside and the effects of…
