Heat Transfer
Three solid objects of the same material and of equal mass-a sphere, a cylinder (length = diameter) and a cube are at 500°C initially. These are dropped in a quenching bath containing a large volume of cooling oil each attaining the bath temperature eventually. The time required for 90% change in temperature is the smallest for
Presence of a non-condensible gas decreases the condensing film co-efficient
Gases under high pressure are routed through the tube side, because high pressure gases are corrosive in nature
All of these
Gases to be heated/cooled is normally routed through the shell side, because the corrosion caused by the cooling water or steam condensate remain localised to the tubes
