Dear members
Hi
I have question on differences between BKU and BKM TEMA.
I am working on ethylene plant energy saving project.
There are two types of chillers (BKU and BKM)
Process description.
Both of them have -27C operating temperature and 1.4kg/cm2(g) operationg pressure.
This is the shell side process condition (propylene refrigerant).
Tube sides of each HX have hydrocarbon fluid (vapor phase) and then condensed fully(BKM) or partially(BKU).
Which factors affect the choice between BKU and BKM?
i appreciate for your advice in advance
Yours
