The purchased cost of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger (floating-head and carbon-steel tubes) with A m^2 of the heating surface was OMR B in 2015. (a) What will be the 2015 purchased cost of a similar heat exchanger with C m^2 of the heating surface if the purchased cost capacity exponent is 0.65 for surface areas ranging from 10 to 50 m^2? (b) If the purchased cost capacity exponent for this type of exchanger is 0.83 for surface areas ranging from 50 to 200 m^2, what will be the purchased cost of a heat exchanger with A m^2 of heating surface in 2018? [15 Marks] Use suitable Marshall & Swift or Chemical engineering plant cost index data values with proper referencing. where A=7728 m^2 B=7728 OMR C=28 m^2
