In a shell and tube heat exchanger, the height of 25 percent cut baffles is equal to (where, D = inside diameter of shell) ?
Correct answer: C. 0.75 D
- A. 0.25 D
- B. 0.50 D
- C. 0.75 D
- D. None of these
Explanation
A 25% baffle cut means that 25% of the shell diameter is removed from the baffle, leaving a baffle height of 75% of the shell inside diameter. Hence, height = 0.75D.
