An air-cooled condenser has an h value of 30 W/m2-K based on the air-side area. The air-side heat transfer area is 190 m2 with air entering at 27°C and leaving at 40°C. If the condensing temperature is constant at 49°C, what is the air mass flow rate in kg/s? Let Cp(air) = 1.006 kJ/kg-K. Draw and label the temperature-flow diagram. Round off your answer to three (3) decimal places.
Crude oil, Cp = 1.9 kJ/(kg.K), flows at a rate of 0.32 kg/s through the inner pipe of a tube-in-tube
heat exchanger and it is heated from 29 °C to 96 °C. Another hydrocarbon, Cp = 2.50 kJ/(kg. K),
enters at 240 °C. The overall coefficient of heat transfer is found to be 4200 W/(m?K). Determine
for a minimum temperature difference of 20 °C between the hot and cold Nuids; a) the LMTD
for parallel flow and for counterflow heat exchamger; b) the surface area for both heat
exchanger configurations; c) mass Now rate of hot Nuid for both heat exchanger configurations.
Catalogue data of a water-cooled condenser of a manufacturer gives the following details:
Condensing temperature 48.9°C
Water inlet temperature 37.8°C
Water flow rate 20.694 kg/s
Capacity 145 tons
Estimate the capacity of this condenser with the same water flow rate but with an inlet temperature of 30°C and a condensation temperature of 42°C. The evaporation temperature may be assumed to be constant at 2.2°C.
