Heat Transfer Calculations for Jacketed Vessels

This document contains input and output values for a heat exchanger calculation. It includes information on the jacket type, agitator type, vessel dimensions, fluid properties, heat transfer coefficients, temperatures and time to change the jacket temperature. The inputs describe a baffled annular jacket with a retreating blade turbine agitator having 2 blades operating at around 160 rpm. Key outputs include a heat transfer rate of 74.57 BTU/hr-ft^2 and a time of 4.23 hours to change the jacket temperature from 86F to 608F.
