PHT Assignment#1 Final Excel Sheet

The document outlines the calculations and parameters for heat transfer in a counter-current flow heat exchanger involving benzene and toluene. It includes detailed formulas for mass flow rates, temperature ranges, pressure drops, and heat transfer coefficients, as well as empirical correlations for viscosity and thermal conductivity. The results indicate that using 4 hairpins maintains the pressure drop within allowable limits while achieving the desired heat transfer efficiency.

Now as Seder Tate Equation for turbulent flow is


Nu=0.023(Re^0.8)(Pr)^1/3*(ɸ)^n*(1+x^-2/3) Euqation8
Last term in above equation i.e. (1+x^-2/3) is correction factor for end effects during turbulent flow

Correction factor for end effects (Ψ) For Inner Pipe (Ψp)
1.02169020015827
And by defination
Nu=(hDfc)/k Euqation9

But for Isothermal Conditions (means wall temp.=mean temp of fluid)


Seder Tate Equation for turbulent flow becomes
Nu'=0.023(Re^0.8)(Pr)^1/3*1*(1+x^-2/3) Euqation10
Using Equation 10
For Inner Pipe
Nu'
397.384105593105

Similarly for Isothermal Conditions (means wall temp.=mean temp of fluid) Equation9 becomes
Nu'=h'Dfc/k
Rearranging gives
h'=Nu'k/Dfc Equation11

Now As
Wall temperature (θw)=(h'iotc+h'oTc)/(h'io+h'o) Euqation12
where

And Caloric temperature θc= θmin. + Fc*(θmax. - θmin.)


For (cf) Caloric temp. is tc= t1+ Fc*(t2-t1)

For (hf) Caloric temp. is Tc= T2 +Fc*(T1-T2)

where Fc is know as caloric fraction


Fc=((r/r-1)+(1/Kc))/(1+((ln(1+Kc))/(lnr))) - (1/Kc)
where r= ∆θ2/∆θ1 0.5
and Kc= ((U'hf)/(U'cf))-1 OR ((U'o)/(U'io))-1
Kc 0.167059223972632

Now for Fc (Equation 15)


Numerator 4.98590114463732
Denomirator 0.777122225618283
1/Kc 5.98590114463732
Putting values Numerator, Denomirator and 1/Kc in Equation 15
Fc 0.429950802809566
Fc<0.5
Therefore θc<ΘAM

Now from Equation 13


tc 97.1980321123827
Similarly from Equation 14
Tc 125.797048168574

Now solve Equation 12 for wall temperature (θw)


θw 112.599893360888
317.927718533826
Now calculate dynamic viscosity (μ) at wall temperature (θw) using Empirical Correlation

Now we are able to calculate Viscosity Number (ɸ) and then Correct film coefficient,Correct H.T coefficient.
And then using Kern's model i.e. Equation 2 we can find Area (Ao) from which Length of H.E can be determined0 and then fin

Now using ho and hio we can find I/Uco using Equation 5 i.e. 1/Uco=1/ho + 1/hio
1/Uco 0.00788828660863442

Now using Equation 7 i.e. Rsio= Rsi * Ao/Ai = Rsio * do/di Calculate Rsio

Rsio 0.00120289855072464

Now calculate overall dirt factor based on outer surface of inner pipe
RDo=Rsio + Rso 0.00220289855072464

Now calculate Wall resistance based on outer surface of inner pipe (Rwo)
Rwo=(do/2kw)*(ln(do/di))

At θw=112.6°F Or 317.93K thermal conductivity of wall (kw) is 34.574


Therefore
Rwo 0.000369567945217627

Now using Euqation4 calculat Overall H.T Coeficient


1/UDO=1/Uco + RDo + Rwo 0.0104607531045767
UDO 95.5954117263785

Now Apply Kern's Model i.e. Qdot=UDoAo(LMTD)


All other parameters are know except Ao
Therefore Ao= Qdot/(UDO*LMTD) 60.9815267384024
Ao<500ft^2

Ao=∏doL
Therefore

n is not given in problem so we have to decide which fluid should be place inside and which fluid should be placed outside the inner pipe.T
viscosity of both fluids is low, both have similar nature (i.e. equally corrosive or fouling) but mass flow rate of cold fluid i.e. Benzene is hig

is constant and hence caloric temperature (θc) can be replaced with Arithematic mean temperatures (θAM).

ace of inner pipe under dirty conditions


e placed outside the inner pipe.This decision can be made on the basis of property values,flow rates and nature of the fluids.
of cold fluid i.e. Benzene is higher than that of hot fluid i.e. Toluene. Therefore Cold fluid should be placed inside the inner pipe and Hot f
ature of the fluids.
ced inside the inner pipe and Hot fluid should be placed on annuler side as(di>De) or (Ap>Aa).
