Question 2: Hot fuel oil is to be cooled in a double pipe counter-flow heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is constructed of a stainless steel (k =15.1 W/m.K) inner tube of inner diameter Di =1.5 cm and outer diameter Do= 1.9 cm and an outer shell of inner diameter 3.2 cm. Water flows through the tube, and the fuel oil through the shell at a rate of 1.1 kg/s. The convection heat transfer coefficient is given to be hi-800 W/m².K. Hot fluid For a fouling factor of Rf₁= 0.0002 m².K/W on the tube side and Rf, on the shell side is to be determined. Determine the overall heat transfer coefficients, Ui and Uo based on the inner and outer surface areas of the tube, respectively. The proprieties of the fuel oil at the average temperature are: 6m²/s 852 kg/m³ v = 37.5 x 10 Pr = 490 Wim V Hot fluid Cold fluid Outer lay Tube wa Inner Do=1.9 cm
