Q. Which of the following is true about Plate heat exchangers?

View solution

Q. Statement 1: Plate heat exchangers are used in heat sensitive foods like milk.
Statement 2: Principle behind plate heat exchangers is that there is very less space between the plates and hence quick heating can take place.

Q. Which of the following is untrue about scraped surface heat exchangers?

View solution

Q. Statement 1: Scraping improves heat transfer co-efficient by 5 times in case of non-Newtonian fluids.
Statement 2: In food industry, major physical changes to food items when they’re processed, take place like transformation from Newtonian to Non-Newtonian fluids. Hence, scraped surface heat exchangers are very beneficial.

Q. Statement 1: Generally, in small scaled jacketed pans, food products like jams, sauces etc are made.
Statement 2: Baffles provide structural support to tubes, but they cannot prevent channeling.

View solution

Q. Statement 1: Difference between 1-1 and 1-2 heat exchanger is that 1-2 has both counter AND co current, whereas 1-1 has only co-current.
Statement 2: 1-2 heat exchanger requires a high pressure drop.
