In a parallel flow heat exchanger, with a cooler at 40 °C at a flow of 2 kg / h, hot water at 1 kg / h is cooled from 90 ° C to 60 ° C. The total heat transfer coefficient is 1000 W / m2K. Cph = Cpc = 4182 J / kgK. According to this; c) Determine the required area considering the case of the cross-flow heat exchanger where one stream is mixed and the other is not mixed.
Heat Exchangers
Heat exchangers are the types of equipment that are primarily employed to transfer the thermal energy from one fluid to another, provided that one of the fluids should be at a higher thermal energy content than the other fluid.
Heat Exchanger
The heat exchanger is a combination of two words ''Heat'' and ''Exchanger''. It is a mechanical device that is used to exchange heat energy between two fluids.
