Process Equipment and Plant Design In a double pipe (concentric) heat exchanger, the hydraulic radius for heat transfer (for a fluid flowing through the annulus) would be D₂ - D₁ (D₁ and D₂ are I.D. of inner and outer pipes respectively) More than that for fluid flow Less than that for fluid flow Same as that for fluid flow D₂ - D₁ (D₁ and D₂ are I.D. of inner and outer pipes respectively) More than that for fluid flow Less than that for fluid flow Same as that for fluid flow ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Process Equipment and Plant Design A certain pressure vessel manufacturer avoids doing reinforcements calculations for openings by always providing a reinforcing pad extending upto double the diameter of the opening and of the same material and thickness as that of the shell wall. If area compensation is accepted as a code guideline, his approach leads to safe design Only if the opening is on a horizontal cylinderical vessel Only if the opening is on spherical vessel Only if the opening is on a vertical cylinderical vessel Irrespective of the shape of the vessel Only if the opening is on a horizontal cylinderical vessel Only if the opening is on spherical vessel Only if the opening is on a vertical cylinderical vessel Irrespective of the shape of the vessel ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
