    This document describes the methodology for two experiments using plate heat exchangers. Experiment 13a uses a counter-current plate heat exchanger, while Experiment 13b uses a co-current plate heat exchanger. Both experiments involve adjusting the hot water flow rate, recording the temperature readings at the inlet and outlet of both streams, calculating the log mean temperature difference, and determining heat loss and efficiency.

    Chapter 2 : Methodology

    Experiment 13a : Counter-current Plate Heat Exchanger

    Valves HV5, HV7, HV9, HV10, HV12


    and HV13 are opened . Thus, pumps
    P1 and P2 are switched on.

    The flow rate for cold-water streams are


    fixed at 18 L/min by adjusting vales.
    While the flow rate for hot-water
    streams are adjusted to 12, 14 ,16, 18,
    20 and 22 L/min.

    Record the temperature of inlet hot


    water (T1), outlet hot water (T2), inlet
    cold water(t1) and outlet cold water(t2)
    and tabulate the data into a table.

    Calculate for ∆Tlm by using formula


    𝑇1 −𝑡2 −(𝑇2 − 𝑡1 )
    ∆Tlm = 𝑇 −𝑡
    ln 1 2
    𝑇 2 − 𝑡1

    Calculate for heat loss and efficiency, by


    using formula Q = UA∆Tlm
    Experiment 13b : Co-current Plate Heat Exchanger

    Valves HV7, HV8, HV11, HV12 and


    HV13 are opened. Thus, pumps P1
    and P2 are switched on.

    The flow rate for cold-water streams are


    fixed at 18 L/min by adjusting vales.
    While the flow rate for hot-water
    streams are adjusted to 12, 14 ,16, 18,

    cold water(t1) and outlet cold water(t2)
