A shell and tube heat exchanger is designed as a counter to cool a mass flow rate of 60 kg/h of engine oil (cp = 1060 J/kg oC) from 300oC to 150oC. The cooling water, cp = 4182 J/kgoC, enters the tube side (Length is 1.75 m and Outer diameter is 2.54 cm) at a temperature of 20oC. If the overall heat transfer coefficient, U, is 10.83 W/m2o C and the Capacity Ratio of the Heat Exchanger is 2.4, calculate the following: a)The heat transfer rate, b)The mass flow rate of the cooling water in the units of (kg/h), C)The surface area of the heat exchanger,

Question

A shell and tube heat exchanger is designed as a counter to cool a mass flow rate of 60 kg/h of engine oil (cp = 1060 J/kg oC) from 300oC to 150oC. The cooling water, cp = 4182 J/kgoC, enters the tube side (Length is 1.75 m and Outer diameter is 2.54 cm) at a temperature of 20oC. If the overall heat transfer coefficient, U, is 10.83 W/m2o C and the Capacity Ratio of the Heat Exchanger is 2.4, calculate the following:

a)The heat transfer rate,
b)The mass flow rate of the cooling water in the units of (kg/h),
C)The surface area of the heat exchanger,
