2.
Height equivalent to a theoretical plate (HETP) is the height of packing that will give the same separation as one theoretical plate in gas-liquid mass transfer operations like distillation, absorption/stripping and humidification/dehumidification. HETP which is experimentally determined, depends upon the
flow rates of each fluid.
type and size of packing.
concentration of each fluid.

Pick out the wrong statement.
Safety valves are provided in heat exchangers for removal of non-conden-sables.
Liquid metals and dowtherm are used for very high temperature heating.
In a shell and tube heat exchanger, high pressure fluid is generally routed through the tube.
A loop seal or U-seal is provided in a vertical condenser sub-cooler to prevent quick draining of the condensate.
