STEP 4: Calculate the area required

Q ( BTU / HR )

504,000

Required Area sq.ft. =

= 28.5 sq.ft.

LMTD c x U ( from table C)

177.3 x 100

STEP 5: Selection

a) From table E choose the correct series size, baffle spacing, and number of passes that best fits your flow rates for both shell and tube side. Note that the tables suggest minimum and maximum information. Try to stay within the 20-80 percent range of the indicated numbers. Example Oil Flow Rate = 80 GPM = Series Required from Table E = 1200 Series Baffle Spacing from Table E = 4 Water Flow Rate = 40 GPM = Passes required in 1200 series = 4 (FP) b) From table D choose the heat exchanger model size based upon the sq.ft. or surface area in the series size that will accommodate your flow rate. Example Required Area = 28.5sq.ft Closest model required based upon sq.ft. & series = UCS - 1248 - 4 - 6 - FP If you require a computer generated data sheet for the application, or if the information that you are trying to apply does not match the corresponding information, please contact our engineering services department for further assistance.
