Plate No. 5 Mean Temperature Difference

This document contains 10 problems related to heat exchangers and calculating temperatures, heat transfer rates, surface areas, and mean temperature differences. The problems involve fluids like oil, water, air, and steam being used in various heat exchange configurations including parallel flow, counterflow, and double pipe. Key values given include mass flow rates, inlet and exit temperatures, heat transfer coefficients, heat capacities, and surface areas. The goal is to use this data to calculate unknown parameters.

5 MEAN TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE

J
1. The oil (cp = 1759kg.℃) from an oil cooled electric transformer is cooled from 79.5℃ to 29.4℃
at the rate of 1360.5kg per hour. This is done in an oil-water heat exchanger that receives
2948kg/hr of water at 15.6℃. For the heat exchanger U=295 W/m2 ℃. Find the exit
temperature of water.
2. A water cooler uses 22.68kg/hr. of melting ice with cool running water from 26.67℃ to
5.56℃. based on the inside coil area, Ui=624.636w/m2 ℃, Find the inside area coil for (Parallel
Flow)
3. A Liquid-to-Liquid counter flow heat exchanger is used as part of an auxiliary system at the
facility. The Heat exchanger is used to heat a cold fluid from 48.89 ℃ to 154.44℃. Assuming
that the hot fluid enters 260℃ and leaves at 204.44℃. Calculate the LMTD.
4. Hot water at 80℃ to heats air from a temperature of 0℃ to 20℃ in a parallel flow heat
exchanger. The water leaves the heat exchanger at 60℃. Calculate AMTD.
5. Sea water for cooling enters a condenser at 32℃ and leaves 42℃. The Condenser temperature
65℃, Calculate LMTD.
6. A parallel Flow heat exchanger designed to heat fuel oil from 90℃ to 130℃, while the heating
fluid enters at 160℃ and leaves 140℃. Calculate AMTD
7. A turbo-generator 16 cylinder , Vee type diesel engine has an air consumption 3000kg/hr per
cylinder at rated load and speed. This air is drawn in thru a filter by a centrifugal compressor
direct connected to the exhaust gas turbine. The temperature of air from compressor 145℃
and a counter flow air cooler reduces air temperature to 45℃ before it goes to engine suction
header. Cooling water enter air cooler at 30℃ leaves at 38℃. Calculate AMTD
8. A 25kg/s flow of air enters a pre-heater at 30℃ and leaves at 150℃; 23kg/s of exhaust
Cp=1.09kJ/kg℃ enters 320℃. The Over-all heat transfer coefficient is 710w/𝑚2 ℃ .
Calculate Surface Area (counter flow)
9. The heat exchanger use to heat the oil from 15 to 85℃. Blowing across the outside of the
tubes is steam which enters at 130℃ and leaves at 110℃ with a mass flow rate 5.2kg/s. The
over-all heat transfer coefficient is 275w/𝑚2 ℃. C for steam 1.86kJ/kg℃ . Calculate surface
area of heat exchanger.
10. Water at a rate 68kg/min is heated from 35 to 75℃ by an oil having cp=1.9kJ/kg℃. The fluids
are use in a counter flow double pipe heat exchanger, and the oil enters the heat exchanger at
110 and leaves at 75℃. The Over-all heat transfer is 320w/𝑚2 ℃. Calculate the area.
