C. Coated
D. Smooth
A. Glazed
B. Oily
C. Coated
D. Smooth
A. 1200 W/m2.K
B. 894 W/m2.K
C. 333 W/m2.K
D. 287 W/m2.K
A. Increase
B. Decrease
C. Remain unchanged
D. Either increase or decrease; depends on the coolant flow rate
A. Remove condensate from the steam pipelines
B. Create vacuum
C. Superheat the steam
D. None of these
A. Increase the cross-section of the shell side liquid
B. Force the liquid to flow parallel to the bank
C. Increase the shell side heat transfer co-efficient
D. Decrease the shell side heat transfer co-efficient
A. Tube thickness
B. Cross-sectional area
C. Weight per unit length
D. None of these
A. Presence of a non-condensable gas decreases the condensing film co-efficient
B. Gases under high pressure are routed through the tube side, because high pressure gases are
corrosive in nature
C. Gases to be heated/cooled is normally routed through the shell side, because the corrosion
caused by the cooling water or steam condensate remain localised to the tubes
D. All A, B. & C.
