Pressure = 13 bar
mass flow rate = 5.75 kg/s
Tsat @ 13 bar = 191.6 deg C
Q = m x ∆h
Q= 3424.24 kW
Also,
Tg, out = 183 deg C
Q = UA(LMTD)
For LMTD,

Nw= 17.14489432 = 17
Gmax 9
Mass flow rate (m) = 49.86 kg/s
ST = 0.07058824 m
WIDTH OF TUBES
W= ST. Nw
W= 1.2 m
Now,
Nu = hi.di/k
hi = Nu*k/di
hi = 4106.48448 W/m2.K
Nu = 89.4617535
Now,
Nu = ho.do/k
ho = Nu*k/do
ho = 80.5828897 W/m2.K
Now,
do/di 1.26666667
1/ hi(do/di) 0.00019225
Rfi (do/di) 0.00025333
do/2k.ln(do/di) 8.1662E-05
1/ho 0.01240958
Rfo 0.001
1/U = 0.0139368
Now,
U= 71.7523401
A = Q/UA LMTD
Surface Area (A) = 843.7471597 m2
NH = (A/Nw)*(1/pi.d.L)
NH = 41.5693875
