Suppose you have hot fluid and cold water, what fluid you should flow in shell side and tube side i..

Answer / sagar mashru

Hot oil should be passed from tube side to prevent the heat
loss and it is desirable from safety point of view.

Answer / hemant jansari

Generally hot fluid should be kept in tube side and cold
fluid sould be kept in shell side for better heat transfer.
But as per operation point of view high corrosive fluid
flow in tubeside for less maintenance. It is depended on
operating condition and cost.

Suppose you have hot fluid and cold water, what fluid you should flow in shell side and tube side i..

Answer / nameh

hot and cold fluids are not well defined. the most important
criteria for tube side fluid selection is corrosive
potential, scale deposition possibility and maintenance
requirements. upon exact definition of fluids; information,
specially hot fluid, the judgement can be performed.

Suppose you have hot fluid and cold water, what fluid you should flow in shell side and tube side i..

Answer / gopi

the answer depends on the situation. like for example if i
want to condense the hot liquid then i will pass hot liquid
in tube side and & cold liquid on shell side. and if i want
to heat the fluid then we will pass hot liquid in shell side
& cold liquid in tube side for getting more heat transfer area.

Answer / dabhi mahesh

If hot fluid no phase
change than pass
though tube side
increase heat transfer
area. And hot fuid
phase change than
pass though shell
side,cold fuid transfer
area increased.

Answer / mehul patel

no, cool water is to be pass through tubr side is
desirable, due to ease of maintenance reason and safety
point of view also.

MICROBIOLOGICAL ENGINEERING - QUESTION 28.3 : In the calculation of the growth of bacteria, absorbance, A in spectrophotometry is used. According to Beer-Lambert Law, A = e x l x c where A is the absorbance of the solution (no unit), l is the distance of light travels through the solution (in cm), e is the molar absorptivity or the molar extinction coefficient [ in L / (mol.cm) ]. For a particular solute and fixed path length : As / Ao = Cs / Co where Ao is the observed signal for a known concentration Co, and As is the observed signal for a sample concentration Cs. (a) For a cell concentration of 560 cells / mL, a spectrophotometre gives an absorbance reading of 1.0. A mixture of concentration 3600000 cells / mL can be diluted in several operations, with each operation having a dilution of 1:20. How many dilutions should be made so that the concentration of this mixture can be calculated within a range of A = 0.0 to 1.0. (b) In another experiment, a sample tube of 1 cm in width is used. Let A = 0.06 and e = 0.0012 ml / (cell.cm). Find the cell concentration of the sample.
