Question:
Design a shell-and-tube exchanger for the following duty. 20,000kg/h of kerosene (42° API) leaves the base of a kerosene side-stripping column at 200°C and is to be cooled to 90°C by exchange with 70,000 kg/h light crude oil (34° API) coming from storage at 40°C. The kerosene enters the exchanger at a pressure of 5 bar and the crude oil at 6.5 bar. A pressure drop of 0.8 bar is permissible on both streams. Allowance should be made for fouling by including a fouling factor of 0.0003 (W/m2 °C)–1 on the crude stream and 0.0002 (W/m2°C)–1 on the kerosene stream.
