Consider a concentric tube heat exchanger with an area of 50 m2
operating under the following conditions:
Heat capacity rate, kW/K Hot Fluid:6, Cold Fluid:3
Inlet temperature Hot Fluid:60, Cold Fluid:30
Outlet temperature Hot Fluid:?, Cold Fluid:54
1.Determine the outlet temperature of the hot fluid.
2. Is the heat exchanger operating in counter flow or parallel
flow, or can’t you tell from the available information?
3. Calculate the overall heat transfer coefficient.
4. Calculate the effectiveness of this exchanger.
5. What would be the effectiveness of this exchanger if its length
were made very large?
