We use Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers when the fluid in operation is very viscous.

We use Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers when the fluid in operation is very viscous. Correct Answer True

Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers are normally used in operations where the designer wants to use highly viscous fluids where high turbulence at the core cannot be achieved, so it removes the fluid from the surface gently and mixes with the bulk.

Consider the following statement for a ball falling in a viscous fluid: a) The viscous force is directly proportional to the radius of the ball b) The viscous force is directly proportional to the velocity of the ball c) The viscous force is inversely proportional to the radius of the ball d) The viscous force is inversely proportional to the velocity of the ball Which of the above statements are correct?
The important design and operating considerations for Extended-Surface Compact Heat Exchangers are: (1) Both fluids may have high or low heat transfer coefficients (2) As the tubes are very narrow (low DH), the fluid used should not be corrosive as effective cleaning of tubes is not possible. (3) The fluid pressure drop calculation is important as a regulatory method to ensure long life of the tubes. (4) Unlike shell and tube type heat exchangers, these are limited when it comes to operating pressure and temperature.
