Q:
In a ___________ heat exchanger, both fluids flow alternatively through the same flow passages, and hence heat transfer is intermittent.
Answer & Explanation
Answer: C) Storage Type
Explanation: In a Storage Type Heat Exchanger, the heat energy from the hot fluid is first stored in the matrix/wall of the heat exchanger. Wherein, cooling of the hot fluid takes place. As the cold fluid passes through this same matrix later, the stored heat energy in the matrix is transferred to the cold fluid. This intermittent flow pattern of hot fluid and cold fluid is an exclusive property of Storage Type HE.
