At the inner surface None of these At the mid thickness of the cylindrical wall At the outer surface At the inner surface None of these At the mid thickness of the cylindrical wall At the outer surface ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Process Equipment and Plant Design In a shell and tube heat exchanger, triangular pitch arrangement as compared to square pitch arrangement Facilitates easier shell side cleaning; hence is more suitable for handling high dirt factor shell side fluid Can accomodate less number of tubes for a given shell diameter Results in higher shell side pressure drop Creates relatively lower turbulence on the shell side resulting in lower shell side heat transfer co-efficient Facilitates easier shell side cleaning; hence is more suitable for handling high dirt factor shell side fluid Can accomodate less number of tubes for a given shell diameter Results in higher shell side pressure drop Creates relatively lower turbulence on the shell side resulting in lower shell side heat transfer co-efficient ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
