Process Equipment and Plant Design The clearance between two tubes in a shell and tube heat exchanger is known as 'ligament', whose minimum value is __________ the outside diameter of the tube, but in no case it should be less than 4.5 mm. Half Three fourth One fourth Equal to Half Three fourth One fourth Equal to 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
