In horizontal thermosyphon natural convection reboiler, the solution is heated in the shell with the hot fluid in the tubes.

In horizontal thermosyphon natural convection reboiler, the solution is heated in the shell with the hot fluid in the tubes. Correct Answer True

The statement is correct, in horizontal thermosyphon natural convection reboiler, the solution is heated in the shell with the hot fluid in the tubes as this design has the advantage of preserving the natural circulation concept while allowing a lower headroom as compared to vertical thermosyphon type.

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.

A chemical solution appears green when the salt concentration is 8 grams per litre (gpl) and red when it is 10 gpl. Pure water was added to the solution of 1 litre of 15 gpl solution till it turned green. Then 125 ml of the green solution is taken out and x grams of salt is added to the green solution to make it red. Another 500 ml of the final solution was taken out and y litres of green solution is added to get a resultant solution of concentration 9.6 gpl.  Assume adding salt doesn’t change its volume and find the ratio of x and y. 
A horizontal heated plate at 200 degree Celsius and facing upwards has been placed in still air at 20 degree Celsius. If the plate measures 1.25 m by 1 m, make calculations for the heat loss by natural convection. The convective film coefficient for free convection is given by the following empirical relation h = 0.32 (α) 0.25 W/m2 K Where α is the mean film temperature in degrees kelvin
