1. A two pass surface condenser is required to handle exhaust from a turbine developing 15 MW with specific steam consumption of 5 kg/k W h. The quality of exhaust steam is 0.9, condenser vacuum is 66 cm of mercury while bar meter reads 76 cm of mercury. The condenser tubes are 28 mm inside diameter, 4 mm thick and water flows through tubes with a speed of 3 m/s and inlet temperature 20 degree Celsius. All steam is condensed, condensate is saturated water and temperature of cooling water at exit is 5 degree Celsius less than condensate temperature. Assuming that overall coefficient of heat transfer is 4 k W/m2 degree, determine mass of cooling water circulated


2. Which of following is not an example of recuperators type heat exchanger?


3. Which one is having highest value of specific heat?


4. A company is heating a gas by passing it through a pipe with steam condensing on outside. What percentage change in length would be needed if it is proposed to triple heating capacity?


5. In a gas turbine recuperator, expression for effectiveness for parallel flow configuration reduces to


6. A cold fluid (specific heat 2.95 k J/kg K) at 10 kg/min is to be heated from 25 degree Celsius to 55 degree Celsius in a heat exchanger. The task is accomplished by extracting heat from hot water (specific heat 4.186 k J /kg K) available at mass flow rate 5 kg/min and inlet temperature 85 degree Celsius. Identify type of arrangement of heat exchanger


7. In how many categories heat exchangers are classified on basis of mechanical design of heat exchanger surface?


8. Which one is having highest value of specific heat?


9. What is value of specific heat for coal in J/kg K?


10. Which one is having lowest value of specific heat?
