Answer / sagar mashru

Hot Fluid should be passed from tube side. Because, If hot
fluid is passed from shell side than there will be heat loss
and there will also be a question of safety because of hot
surface on outer side.

Answer / vikram

hot fluid should passed from tube side because it is easy to
clear the tube side or we can easily replaced the tube if
fouling kind of things happen which will reduce the rate of
heat transfer,while cold water should passed through shell side

Answer / kln

We have to consider the properties like corrosivity,
fouling factor etc.. while selecting the t/s or s/s fluids
in an exchanger. More fouling/corrosive material to be
selected on t/s as cleaning or replacement of tubes are
easy.

Answer / k manoj kumar

Thank you guys. I have seen your answers. I have a doubt about it. Oil is neither corrosive nor acidic. Then why can't we send it through shell side?

Answer / umar

when both the fluids have equal corrosiveness, the fluid of high pressure should pass the tube side. Because the tendency of tubes to collapse by external pressure is double to that of by internal pressure.

BIOCHEMICAL ENGINEERING INSTRUMENTATION - EXAMPLE 29.5 : The following formula is used as a reference : (analyte signal) / (internal standard signal) = (f-factor) x (concentration of analyte) / (concentration of internal standard). A solution containing 3 mM of analyte and 4 mM of internal standard gave peak signals of 2 and 3 mamps respectively. Another similar solution containing 2 mM of analyte and 1 mM of internal standard gave peak signals of 1 and 4 mamps respectively. Find the average f-factor.

Question 70 - According to Adolf Eugen Fick (1829 - 1901) : rate of diffusion v increases with less wall thickness t, increased area A and decreased molecular weight of a fluid M. The diffusion constant D decreased with increasing M. (a) By assuming v, t, dP, A, M and D changes proportionally of each other, find the equation of v as a function of t, dP, A and D. (b) The ratio of self diffusion constant D, at T = 273 K and P = 0.1 MPa, for gases B and C are 1.604 : 0.155. If only 2 gases exist in such a system : hydrogen and nitrogen, find the type of gas for B and C with reference to their molecular weights M. (c) By using the equation of kinetic energy 0.5 MV = constant where V = square of v, find the ratio of V for B and V for C, or V(B) / V(C), as a function of M(B) and M(C), where M(B) is molecular weight of B and M(C) the molecular weight of C : Graham's Law of Diffusion.
