Part C
A surface condenser is required to condense 30,000 kg of dry steam per hour at a pressure of 0.04
bar at 29°C. The cooling water enters at 15°C and leaves at 27°C. Assume the overall surface area
(As) of the tube is 1200 m² If the velocity of water in the tubes should not exceed 2 m/s, the
outside diameter of the tube is 0.025 m and the inside diameter is 0.022 m, determine (i) the heat
transfer (ii) mass of cooling water circulated (iii) the number of tubes (iv) the length of each tube
and (v) the overall heat transfer coefficient of the tubes. Take the density of water =1000
kg/m3 and specific heat of water =4.187 kJ/kg K.
