fluid path. Thus, decreasing the cross sectional area could increase the
fluid velocity. This is achieved in multi pass heat exchangers at the
cost of pressure drop & temperature gradient affecting due to
concurrent flow. The temperature profile for 1-2-pass heat exchangers
is shown in the fig. 1.

inlet & outlets of the heat exchanger to know temperature of the shell
& tube sides by pass valves are provided to vary flow rates.
PROCEDURE:
1. Admit water into hot & cold water tanks and keeps heater on.
2. When the temperature of hot water reaches to 60 to 70 C, admit it
into tube side of the exchanger at fixed known flow rate.
3. Admit cold water into shell side of the heat exchanger. At steady
state. Note down temperature and flow rates of the shell and tube
side fluids.
4. Keep the flow rate and temp. Of hot fluid constant and vary flow
rate of cold water at uniform intervals. Repeat the above procedure
and note down readings.
