DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM

43,200 lb/hr of 35 API distillate is cooled from 250 to 120 F using cooling water from 85 to 120oF. Available for service is a 19.25 in. ID 1-2 exchanger having 204 tubes 3/4in. OD, 16 BWG, 16'0" long on 1-in square . Baffles are spaced at 5in. Apart, and the bundle is arranged for 4 passes. Calculate pressure drop & dirt Factor. What is the optimum outlet water temperature? (Allowable Pressure Drop is 10.0 psi)
