The value of fouling factor depends upon the

In case of bubble cap distillation column of diameter greater than 1.2 metres, the cap diameter is roughly about __________ cms.

Tube side pressure drop in a 1-2 heat exchanger (for turbulent flow of fluids through the tubes) is about __________ times, that in a 1-1 heat exchanger having the same size & number of tubes and operated at the same liquid flow rate.

To keep the power input constant for a stirred vessel operating under fully developed turbulent flow conditions (constant power number), if the impeller diameter is increased by 20%, the impeller speed should be decreased by a factor of

In a heat exchanger, shell side fluid velocity can be changed by changing the tube
