Question 90 (Textile Engineering & Fibre Science)
If the maximum fluid circulating capacity of the above heat exchanger is 104 kg/hr and the required temperature of water at the outlet is 75oC, the maximum flow rate of water (kg/hr) at the outlet will be
(A) | 0.85 x 104 |
(B) | 1.28 x 104 |
(C) | 1.44 x 104 |
(D) | 1.67 x 104 |
[Show Answer]
Option D is correct.
Maximum flow rate of water x specific heat of water x temperature of water=Maximum fluid circulating capacity x specific heat of fluid x temperature of fluid
Maximum flow rate of water x 4200 x (75-30)= x 2500 x (200-75)
Maximum flow rate of water x 4200 x 45=x 2500 x 125
Maximum flow rate of water = x 1.65
Maximum flow rate of water =1.65 x
