Shell Side Fluid Steam

This document provides specifications and calculations for a heat exchanger. The steam side uses steam at 155C as the heat source at a rate of 1.2 MW. The tube side uses liquor at 60C which heats up to 80C, exchanging 1.005 MW of heat. The heat exchanger has 33 tubes that are 5 meters long bundled together with a diameter of 499mm. Calculations determine parameters like heat transfer coefficients, Reynolds numbers, and Nusselt numbers to size and characterize the heat exchanger.
