Q1:

In case of a shell and tube heat exchanger, the minimum and maximum baffle spacing is respectively (where, D = inside diameter of the shell)

A D/5 and D

B D/2 and 2 D

C D/4 and 2 D

D D and 2 D

ANS:A - D/5 and D

In a shell and tube heat exchanger, the minimum and maximum baffle spacing is typically given as: Minimum baffle spacing: 4D​ Maximum baffle spacing: D So, the correct option is: Minimum baffle spacing: 4D​ and Maximum baffle spacing: D
