Double Pipe Heat Exchanger: Expt - No:6a Date

This document describes a problem involving heat transfer through a double pipe heat exchanger. Benzene enters at 141°F and exits at 79°F while cooling water enters at 65°F and exits at 75°F in the outer pipe. The problem involves calculating the film coefficients and overall heat transfer coefficient based on the properties of benzene and water. A MATLAB code is provided to solve the problem numerically and plot the results of temperature versus overall heat transfer coefficient.

DOUBLE PIPE HEAT EXCHANGER

PROBLEM STATEMENT:

Benzene is cooled from 141 oF to 79oF in the inner pipe of a double pipe heat
exchanger.Cooling water flows counter currently to the benzene entering the jacket at
65oF(18.3oC) and leaving at 75oF(23.9oC). The exchanger consists of an inner pipe of 7/8 in.
(22.2 mm)BWG 16 copper tubing jacketed with 11/2 in.(38.1 mm)Schedule 40 steel pipe.The
linear velocity of the benzene is 5ft/s(1.52 m/s).Neglecting the resistance of the wall and scale
films and assuming L/D >150 for both pipes compute the film coefficient of benzene and water
and the overall coefficient based on the outside area of inner pipe.
