In last week I completed my first assignment.
In this I was asked to design the two set of evaporater coils to be placed in-bed and above bed. It was a part of “Boiler Furnace Design” problem which was being worked upon by my guide. The evaporater being designed, was for use at a petroleum refinery and so few paramters like flow rate of oil being heated, inlet temp. and outlet temp. , oil properties etc were specifid by customer. Some paramteres were not available and so for that I took suitablea ssumptions (after consultation with my guide). While doing this assignment I found the various concepts learned in “heat and mass transfer” highly useful.
This assignment is important because after completing it I have understood the method of thermal designing which may be useful when doing my project on gasification.
