Zero
Same as average heat transfer co-efficient for tube side
None of these
Correct answer: (A) Infinity
212. In a shell and tube type heat exchanger, the floating tube bundle heat arrangement is used
In low range of temperature differences
In high range of temperature differences
Because of its low cost
To prevent corrosion of the tube bundles
Correct answer: (B) In high range of temperature differences
213. In a single effect evaporator, the economy is

< 1
> 1
None of these
Correct answer: (B) < 1
214. In a single evaporator system, the steam economy _________ by creating vacuum in the evaporator.
Increases

Correct answer: (A) Increases
215. In an extended surface heat exchanger, fluid having lower co-efficient
Flows through the tube
Flows outside the tubes
Can flow either inside or outside the tubes
Should not be used as it gives very high pressure drop
Correct answer: (B) Flows outside the tubes
