In counter current flow heat exchanger, the logarithmic temperature difference between the fluids is ________ as compared to parallel flow heat exchanger.
A. Same
B. Less
C. Greater
D. None of these
Answer: Option C
Solution(By Examveda Team)
The exchanger is performing at its best when the outlet temperatures are equal. Counter flow heat exchangers are inherently more efficient than parallel flow heat exchangers because they create a more uniform temperature difference between the fluids, over the entire length of the fluid path.Related Questions on Heat and Mass Transfer
