Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Solution:-
- The shell and tube heat exchanger are designated by the order of tube and shell passes.
- A single tube pass: The fluid enters from inlet, exchange of heat, the fluid exits.
- A multiple tube pass: The fluid enters from inlet, exchange of heat, U bend of the fluid, exchange of heat, .... ( nth order of pass ), and then exits.
- By increasing the number of passes we have increased the "retention time" of a specific volume of tube fluid; hence, providing sufficient time for the fluid to exchange heat with the shell fluid.
- By making more U-turns we are allowing greater length for the fluid flow to develop with " constriction and turns " into turbulence. This turbulence usually at the final passes allows mixing of fluid and increases the heat transfer coefficient by:
U ∝ v^( 0.8 ) .... ( turbulence )
- The higher the velocity of the fluids the greater the heat transfer coefficient. The increase in the heat transfer coefficient will allow less heat energy carried by either of the fluids to be wasted ; hence, reduced losses.
Thereby, increases the thermal efficiency of the heat exchanger ( higher NTU units ).
Answer:
The elevation at the high point of the road is 12186.5 in ft.
Explanation:
The automobile weight is 2500 lbf.
The automobile increases its gravitational potential energy in 
. It means the mobile has increased its elevation.
The initial elevation is of 5183 ft.
The first step is to convert Btu of potential energy to adequate units to work with data previously presented.
British Thermal Unit - 
Now we have the gravitational potential energy in lbf*ft. Weight of the mobile is in lbf and the elevation is in ft. We can evaluate the expression for gravitational potential energy as follows:
Where m is the mass of the automobile, g is the gravity, W is the weight of the automobile showed in the problem.
is the final elevation and 
is the initial elevation.
Replacing W in the Ep equation
Finally, the next step is to replace the variables of the problem.
The elevation at the high point of the road is 12186.5 in ft.
Answer is: $637.28; just did the math but i really don’t want to type it all out.
