A heat exchanger is heating water on the tube side with steam condensing on the shell side. The water is entering at 45 0 F and exiting at 175 0 F. No instruments are available for measuring the tube side water flow but condensed steam from the shell side is being collected at a rate of 43 GPM. If the tube area of the exchanger is 350 Ft2 , and the overall heat transfer coefficient clean was 900 BTU/Hr.Ft2 F0, how much has the overall heat transfer coefficient changed, if at all? Note: Latent heat for water/steam at 212 0 F is 970 BTU per pound of water. A gallon of water weighs 8.34 lbs.
The condenser of a room air conditioner is designedto reject heat at a rate of 15,000 kJ/h from refrigerant-134aas the refrigerant is condensed at a temperature of 408C. Air(cp 5 1005 J/kg?K) flows across the finned condenser coils,entering at 258C and leaving at 358C. If the overall heat transfer coefficient based on the refrigerant side is 150 W/m2?K,determine the heat transfer area on the refrigerant side.

ii. the maximum rate of heat transfer (kW),
iii. the effectiveness of the heat exchanger (NTU method),
iv. the actual rate of heat transfer (kW), and
v. the outlet temperatures of both cold water and hot air.
