In the following shell and tube setup as shown, recognise the number of Concurrent and Counter-current interactions. Correct Answer 3 concurrent and 3 counter current

In the setup shown above, we observe alternate concurrent and counter current flow regimes. Looking at the region THA to Ti, there is a single Concurrent and Counter-current interaction, as there are total 3 interaction areas, we get alternating 3 concurrent and 3 counter current flow patterns.
