Heat exchanger calculation

Post by Klein »

Hey I'm wondering how to do calculations for a heat exchanger. (Liebig)
I'd love to learn how to do them myself (I like doing math)

I'm looking at making a heat exchanger heated by water at about 99C and and would be heating a ~10% wash.

_____________________________
Water temperature: 99c
Water flow rate: 131ml/min
Wash input temperature: ~ 15c
Wash alcohol content: ~ 10% ABV
Wash flow rate 160ml/min
_____________________________

Liebig heat exchanger 3/4" over 1/2" with the wash inside the 1/2"
I'd like to figure out
Roughly what the wash temp would be if I used a 36" vs a 72" heat exchanger.

Thanks for the help!!
