Water entering a shell and tube heat exchanger at 350C is to be heated to 75 oC by an oil. The oil enters at 110 oC and leaves at 75 >C, the heat exchanger is arranged for counter flow with the water making one shell pass and the oil making two tube passes. If the vater flow rate is 68 kg/min and the overall heat transfer coefficient is 320 W/m2 K, calculate the required .heat exchanger area

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.
