poles

Ocean currents transfer heat from the Equator toward the poles. This moderates Earth's temperature.

Here's a precise problem for a chemistry student to solve related to designing a heat exchanger for a specific process:A chemical plant produces a product with a flow rate of 500 liters per hour, and it needs to be cooled from its initial temperature of 120°C to its final temperature of 80°C before it can be packaged for shipment. The cooling medium that will be used is water, which is available at a flow rate of 400 liters per hour and an initial temperature of 20°C. Design a heat exchanger to cool the product and determine the required surface area of the heat exchanger if the overall heat transfer coefficient is 500 W/m2K.

Design a heat exchanger that can transfer heat from a 10,000 L/h hot water stream at 80°C to a 5,000 L/h cold water stream at 20°C with a maximum temperature difference of 10°C. Calculate the required heat transfer area and select appropriate materials for the heat exchanger components based on the fluids' properties and operating conditions.
