    The document describes heat transfer in multi-pass exchangers. It explains the nomenclature used to describe the inlet and outlet temperatures of the hot and cold fluids. It then discusses temperature profiles for a 1-2 exchanger with co-current flow and a 2-4 exchanger. It notes that multi-pass exchangers involve a mix of co-current and counter-current flow. The document also describes the concept of a "temperature cross" that can occur for counter-current flow, where the cold fluid reaches its maximum temperature inside the exchanger rather than at the outlet. Finally, it briefly compares parallel and counter-current flow patterns.
