In a gas-liquid shell and tube heat exchanger, the

Question: In a gas-liquid shell and tube heat exchanger, the
[A].

presence of a non-condensible 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.
