The oil flows through the inner pipe made of copper (OD = 2.85 cm, ID = 2.54 cm) and the surface heat transfer coefficient on the oil side is 635 Wim?.C. The oil is heated by hot water supplied at the rate of 390 kg/h and at an inlet temperature of 93°C. The water side heat transfer coefficient is 1270 Wim?.C. Take the thermal conductivity of copper to be 350 WimC and the fouling factors on the oil and water sides to be 0.0001 and 0004 m?.C/W. Whatis the length of the heat exchanger for (i) parallel flow, and (ii) counter flow?
