Tutorial 2

The document outlines a tutorial focused on calculating the Log Mean Temperature Difference (LMTD) for counterflow heat exchangers under various conditions. It includes specific temperature ranges for both hot and cold fluids and compares the advantages of counterflow versus parallel flow. Additionally, it discusses the heat transfer process involving kerosene and crude oil, highlighting temperature deviations from the mean.

Tutorial 2

1. Calculate the LMTD for counterflow in the following cases in which the hot fluid is cooled from
300 to 100 °F and the cold fluid, heated through an equal range in each case, is (a) 90 to 140 °F,
(b) 80 to 180 °F, and (c) 60 to 110 °F. Observe the nature of the deviation of the LMTD from the
arithmetical mean of the two terminal differences in each case?

2. A hot fluid is cooled from 245 to 225 °F in each case. Compare the advantages of counterflow
over parallel flow in the size of the LMTD when a cold fluid is to be heated from (a) 135 to 220 °F,
(b) 125 to 210 °F, and (c) 50 to 185 °F.

3. A 40°API kerosene is cooled from 400 to 200 °F by heating 34°API crude oil from 100 to 200 °F.
Between what calorie temperatures is the heat transferred, and how do these deviate from the
mean?
