Question
2. A single-shell, four-tube-pass heat exchanger is used to
cool water flowing at 14 kg.s¹¹ entering at 18°C using
ammonia with a mass flow rate of 18 kg.s¹ and an entry
temperature and pressure of -12°C and 650 kPa, absolute,
respectively. The heat exchanger is to use the ammonia
in the liquid form, so no evaporation can be allowed. At
620 kPa, absolute pressure, ammonia evaporates at
10.5°C. The overall heat transfer coefficient of the heat
exchanger is 568 W.m²2 and the heat transfer surface area
is 75 m². Determine the outlet temperatures of the hot
and cold streams. Identify whether the heat exchanger,
operating under the conditions shown, satisfies the
requirement that the ammonia remains liquid throughout
the process.
