Heat Transfer
Air is to be heated by condensing steam. Two heat exchangers are available (i) a shell and tube heat exchanger and (ii) a finned tube heat exchanger. Tube side heat transfer area are equal in both the cases. The recommended arrangement is
Finned tube heat exchanger with air inside and steam outside
Finned tube heat exchanger with air outside and steam inside
Shell and tube heat exchanger with air inside tubes and steam on shell side
Shell and tube heat exchanger with air on shell side and steam inside tubes
