4. |
What limitations does Gaskets pose on Gasketed type HE? |
A. | Limits its use only to non-corrosive fluids, as the gaskets get corroded |
B. | It leads to leakage and does not provide proper separation |
C. | One directional flow is the only possibility |
D. | Reduces necessary heat transfer area causing decreased Heat coefficients |
Answer» B. It leads to leakage and does not provide proper separation | |
5. |
How is a Plate-type HE better than a Shell and tube HE, one of the following is not correct. |
A. | Plate type heat exchangers have much higher heat transfer area than Shell and tube ones |
B. | Thermal stress is higher in Plate type HE |
C. | Vibrations due to flow and noise are comparatively absent in Plate type HE |
D. | Entry impingement problem of shell and tube is absent in Plate type HE |
Answer» C. Vibrations due to flow and noise are comparatively absent in Plate type HE | |
6. |
Which of the following is a correct statement about Plate -Fin heat exchanger? |
A. | Fins are irrelevant as it already provides a very large surface area |
