how to design a heat exchanger?..

Answer / sandy

It is good to refer Kerns handbook of HE design. As all
knows HE has several functions like cooler, heater,
eveporator, condenser etc. So based on each kind of usage
the design procedure changes.
But one can say the basic eqaution for all types of HE
design is Q = U A Dt.

For more details refer Kern's handbook.

ENGINEERING NUMERICAL METHODS - EXAMPLE 19.3 : There are 2 simultaneous equations : (A1) x + (B1) y = D1 and (A2) x + (B2) y = D2. (a) By using Excel program, find the values of x and y when A1 = 80, A2 = 150, B1 = 52, B2 = 100, D1 = 3.5 and D2 = 2.3. (b) Write the expression of Excel in the form of =MMULT(MINVERSE(W:X),Y:Z) in order to get the values of x and y. W, X, Y and Z may be A1, A2, B1, B2, D1 and D2.

X is a solid having a white colour at room temperature. It has a density about 2g/cc. Although it has melting point near 325 degree Celsius, its properties start degrading above 260 degree Celsius. The coefficient of friction is very low about 0.1. It has very good dielectric properties especially at higher radio frequencies. It has a very high bulk resistivity. It is chemically inert. It is also resistant to van der Waals force. It is hydrophobic as well as lipophobic. Creep or ‘Cold Flow’ has been observed in X.

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.35 : A voluntary accountant is performing Du Pont Analysis for a charitable engineering organization. References for 3-step Du Pont formula are : (ROE) = (Net Income $) / (Equity $), where ROE is Return On Equity. (ROS) = (Net Income $) / (Sales $), where ROS is Return On Sales. (Asset Turnover) = (Sales $) / (Assets $). (Leverage) = (Assets $) / (Equity $). From the balance sheet and income statement, the company has Assets of $3753.19 this year and $3216.86 last year. Sales for this year is $2292.34. Let ROE = 0.37 and ROS = 0.21. (a) Calculate the Asset Turnover of the organization. (b) Find the value of the organizational Leverage. (c) Calculate the Net Income $ of the organization.

A cylinder with a movable piston contains 0.1 mole of a monoatomic ideal gas. The piston moves through state a, b and c. The heat Q, changes from state c to a is 685 J. The work W, changes from state c to a is -120 J. The work, W performed from state a to b then to c is 75 J. By using the first law of thermodynamic, U = Q W where U is the internal energy : (a) Determine the change in internal energy between states a and c. (b) Is heat added or removed from the gas when the gas is taken along the path abc? (c) Calculate the heat added or removed when the gas is taken along the path abc?
