I am designing a condenser to condense ethylene oxide on the shell side of a shell & tube heat exchanger using cooling water on the tube side. The condenser operating pressure is 2 atm and at this pressure, Ethylene Oxide condenses at 30 deg C. No subcooling takes place in the condenser. How should I select the temperature of the chilled water to be used and what should be the allowable temperature rise of the chilled water at the outlet?

If you want to keep this into a single E-type shell-and-tube heat exchanger, the maximum outlet chilled water temperature should be a maximum of 1 to 2 degrees above 30 C. The inlet chilled water temperature depends on the economics of that system.
