HRAT 20

Solution Startegy
1. We subtract HRAT from the hot stream temperature
2. We tabulate all hot and cold stream temperatures in descending order
3. We find corresponding hot and cold enthalpies in each temperature band (T)
4. We subtract cold enthalpies from the hot ones
5. We tabulate the cascaded total enthalpies
6. We find the minimum value and add it to the entire column to generate surplus
enthalpies
7. Minimum value found above correspond to Hot Utility
8. Last value in the surplus Enthalpies column corresponds to Cold utility
9. Add this cold utility to the cold enthalpies in a cascaded manner to get CCC.
10. Cascaded from of the Hot enthalpies gives HCC
11. Plot HCC and CCC
12. Perform the pinch analysis and identify heat exchange zones
13. Minimum number of heat exchangers in each zone is number streams in that zone
minus 1
