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.

what is "heat exchanger piping system"? give definition type your answer

Question 2 En. Karim recently install a hot water system operates by a solar energy. The system consists of double pipe counter flow heat exchanger. Cold waters enters a tube at 22°C at a rate of 0.1 kg/s, while hot air enters the heat exchanger at 90°C at a rate of 0.3 kg/s. The specific heat for both cold water and hot air is cp = 4180 J/kg.K and c, = 1010 J/kg.K , respectively. The overall heat transfer coefficient based on the inner side of the tube is 80 W/m².K. The length of the tube is 12 m and the internal diameter of the tube is 1.2 cm. En. Karim assigned you do the complete analysis on this hot water system including to calculate the effectiveness of the heat exchanger. As an engineer, you have to determine: i. the heat capacity rates of both fluids, ii. the maximum rate of heat transfer (kW), iii. the effectiveness of the heat exchanger (NTU method), iv. the actual rate of heat transfer (kW), and v. the outlet temperatures of both cold water and hot air.

QUESTION 1 Question 1: The engineering team at Grainger company designed a shell-and-tube water-to-water heat exchanger that has a maximum heat transfer rate of 330,000 Btu/hr. This is the maximum heat transfer a customer can expect to achieve in actual operation. For this heat exchanger, the maximum flow capacity of the shell and tube are 24 and 12 gpm (gallons per minute), respectively. Max allowable temperature is 300 °F. Material is stainless steel. The shell is equipped with baffles, but the shell fluid only has one pass. The tubes enter and exit on the same side through a divided manifold and therefore have two passes. Conduction resistance is assumed to be negligible. The overall size of the system (i.e. the shell) is 5.8 inch ID and a 27-inch long tube section. Both fluids are water. Assume the system is operating at maximum design conditions (i.e. T_hot, in = 300 °F; Q_shell = 24 gpm, etc. from above) and that the cold fluid is from a building water supply at 70 °F. 1.1 ( The…
