Process Equipment and Plant Design In case of a shell and tube heat exchanger, the minimum shell thickness for carbon steel (inclusive of corrosion allowance) depends on shell diameter and is in the range of __________ mm. 44058 43962 43895 44183 44058 43962 43895 44183 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 Creates relatively lower turbulence on the shell side resulting in lower shell side heat transfer co-efficient Results in higher shell side pressure drop 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 Creates relatively lower turbulence on the shell side resulting in lower shell side heat transfer co-efficient Results in higher shell side pressure drop 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 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP

Process Equipment and Plant Design Pick out the wrong statement pertaining to the design of the distillation column. If sufficient slot area is not provided, the gas may pass through the skirt clearance None of these The purpose of the slot is to disperse the gas into the liquid in the form of small bubbles Generally, a skirt clerance of 0.5" to 1.5' is recommended to prevent plugging of the slots by residue build up If sufficient slot area is not provided, the gas may pass through the skirt clearance None of these The purpose of the slot is to disperse the gas into the liquid in the form of small bubbles Generally, a skirt clerance of 0.5" to 1.5' is recommended to prevent plugging of the slots by residue build up ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
