QUESTIONS AND COMPLETE ANSWERS
◉ The rating problem
The sizing problem
Answer: Rating: It deals with the determination of the heat transfer
per unit time for an existing system at a specified temperature
difference.
Sizing: It deals with the determination of the capacity of a system in
order to transfer heat at a specified rate for a specified temperature
difference.
