Heat transfer co-efficient, hG(Kcal/hr.m² .°C) and mass velocity of air, G (kg/hr.m² ) for air flow parallel to the surface in case of constant drying rate in batch drying is related as hG = 0.0176G0.8. But when the flow of air perpendicular to the surface is encountered, this equation changes to

HG = 0.0176G0.37
0.0176G1.37
HG = 1.004G0.37
1.004G0.8

Pick out the wrong statement pertaining to the design of a horizontal tube evaporator.

Liquor flows inside the tube, while the steam is outside submerging the tube
It is unsuitable for concentrating those liquids, which form a scale or deposit salt
It is suitable for process, in which the final product is a liquor instead of solid
Its usual dimensions are: tube dia = 2-3 cms; evaporator body dia = 1-4 metres and evaporator height = 2.5-4 metres
