Water (cp = 4180 J/kg·°C) enters the 2.5 cm internal diameter tube of a double-pipe counter-flow heat exchanger at 17°C at a rate of 1.8 kg/s. Water is heated by steam condensing at 120°C (hfg = 2203 kJ/kg) in the shell. If the overall heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger is 700 W/m2 ·°C, determine the length of the tube required in order to heat the water to 80°C using (a) the LMTD method, and (b) the –NTU method. Answers: 129.5 m; 129.6 m

Length = 129.55m, 129.55m

Explanation:

Given:

cp of water = 4180 J/kg·°C

Diameter, D = 2.5 cm

Temperature of water in =  17°C

Temperature of water out = 80°C

mass rate of water =1.8 kg/s.

Steam condensing at 120°C

Temperature at saturation = 120°C

hfg of steam at 120°C = 2203 kJ/kg

overall heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger = 700 W/m2 ·°C

U = 700 W/m2 ·°C

Since Temperature of steam is at saturation,

temperature of steam going in = temperature of steam out = 120°C

Energy balance:

Heat gained by water = Heat loss by steam

Let specific capacity of steam = 2010kJ/Kg .°C
