This document summarizes the preliminary design of a heat exchanger. It provides input parameters such as fluid properties and mass flow rates. It then shows calculations to determine the required heat transfer area of 96.9 sqft based on a heat transfer rate of 925,000 Btu/hr. Additional calculations determine that with the known heat transfer area, a pipe length of 61.7 ft is required for a pipe diameter of 0.5 ft. Equations used in the calculations include equations for the log mean temperature difference, heat transfer rate, and determining pipe length from the heat transfer area and diameter.
