4. In a shell and tube heat exchanger, triangular pitch arrangement as compared to square pitch arrangement
Options
A. results in higher shell side pressure drop.
B. can accomodate less number of tubes for a given shell diameter.
C. facilitates easier shell side cleaning; hence is more suitable for handling high dirt factor shell side fluid.
D. creates relatively lower turbulence on the shell side resulting in lower shell side heat transfer co-efficient.
