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.

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.

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.

QUANTUM CHEMISTRY AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 31.2 : (a) Let | - > = 1 | x > + 0 | y >, | | > = 0 | x > + 1 | y >. Find the value of 2 | x > + 3 | y > in term of | - > and | | >. (b) Let m to be the reduced mass. Find the value of m in term of Ma and Mb where 1 / m = 1 / Ma + 1 / Mb.
The water is superheated steam at 440 degree Celsius and 17.32 megapascals. Estimate the enthalpy of the steam above. From the steam table for water at 440 degree Celsius, enthalpy of steam, h at 18 megapascals is 3103.7 kilojoules per kilogram and at 16 megapascal is 3062.8 kilojoules per kilogram. Assume that h = mP c where P is pressure; m and c are constants at fixed temperature with small differences in P.

QUANTUM COMPUTING - EXAMPLE 32.6 : (a) Let H | 0 > = 0.707 ( | 0 > + | 1 > ), H | 1 > = 0.707 ( | 0 > - | 1 > ). Find the values for H | 0 > + H | 1 > and H | 0 > - H | 1 >. (b) In quantum computing, a qubyte is a quantum byte, or 8 quantum bits, a sequence processed as a unit. A qubit is a quantum bit. According to Alexander Holevo in his theorem, n qubits cannot carry more than n classical bits of information. What is the maximum amount of classical bits of information that can be carried by 1 qubyte.
