High pressure fluid in a shell and tube heat exchanger should preferably be routed through the________?
AShell side, if the flow is counter-current and tube side if the flow is co-current
BTubes to avoid the expansion of high pressure shell construction
CShell side for smaller total pressure drop
DShell side for large overall heat transfer co-efficient
Correct answer
B. Tubes to avoid the expansion of high pressure shell construction
Explanation
The correct answer is Tubes to avoid the expansion of high pressure shell construction.
