In a concentric, two-pipe heat exchanger, the pressurized water with a flow rate of 12000 kg/h is heated from 35 °C to 120 °C with a flow of 5000 kg/h with superheated water (pressurized water) at 300 °C inlet temperature. The total heat transfer coefficient is 1500 W/m'K. Use TS 1996 Heat Exchangers standard for design. Where the required heat exchanger surface area is 3.2m a)Calculate the pressure drop. b)Find the insulation thickness to be made outside the body.
