For a parallel plate heat exchanger
Discuss the effect of the following design modifications on theheat transfer rate and outlet stream temperatures:
[Assume all flow rates, inlet temperatures and all other heatexchanger dimensions are the same. State any other assumptions]
a. More plates (assuming gap between plates is constant,thus increasing overall heat exchanger height).
b. Longer plates.
