    This document provides data for a shell and tube heat exchanger that uses butyl alcohol and orthoxylene as fluids. It asks for calculations of the heat load, log mean temperature difference (LMTD), heat exchanger area, required overall heat transfer coefficient, clean overall coefficient, fouling coefficient, and whether the exchanger will be thermally suitable.

    Butyl alcohol 18 000 lb/hr and 170°F is cooled at 140°F with cooling Orthoxylene heated from 100°F at 150°F

    in a shell and tube heat exchanger. Available for this duty is a shelland-tube exchanger having 196 tubes in a
    21.25-in ID shell. There are two passes on the shell side and two passes on the tube side. The baffles are 20%
    cut segmental type and are spaced at 5.5-in intervals. Take the specific heats of alcohol is 0.7 Btu/(lb-°F) and
    orthoxylene is 0.43 Btu/(lb-°F). The exchanger has 14 ft steel tubes with 1in O.D. with BWG 15. The tubes are
    on a 1.15 in triangular pitch. The thermal conductivity of stainless steel is 25.9 Btu/(ft-hr-°F). The alcohol will
    flow though the tube. Estimate:

    Evidence 1
    a) The heat load for the heat exchanger
    b) The ΔTLMTD and correction factor
    c) Area of the heat exchanger

    Evidence 2
    d) The overall heat transfer coefficient required
    e) The overall heat transfer coefficient clean
    f) The overall heat transfer coefficient fouling
    g) Will the exchanger be thermally suitable for this service?
