Answer / bharat

temperature inside heat-exchanger changes exponentially so
taking average would give erroneous results. and LMTD is
calculated by considering a small elemental area of heat
exchanger so it gives more accurate temperature difference.

Answer / awkash

Because temperature change in heat exchanger is not linear
in nature so we can not take airthmatic mean here,
physically you can think in the manner like if we inlet
temp. of a pipe is 80 and outlet temp. is 40 then u cannot
say that temp in middle will be 60.
thats why for accurte measurement we take lmtd.

Answer / abina

in heatexchanger temperature changes from point to point along the length so we are calculating Lmtd. ..Bt avg temperature dosnt gv correct value

Answer / anil

LMTD value it gives the correct average temperature without any errors compare to average temperature

Question 46 - In a steady state one dimensional conduction with no heat generation, the differential equation is d / dx (k dT / dx) = 0. Prove that T(x) = ax + b, where k, a and b are constants. (b) At x = 0, T = c and at x = L, T = d. Prove that T(x) = (d - c) x / L + c for boundary conditions.
