- What is the main difference between a copper and a cupronickel coaxial heat exchanger, and where is each used?arrow_forwardWater flowing in a long, aluminum lube is to be heated by air flowing perpendicular to the exterior of the tube. The ID of the tube is 1.85 cm, and its OD is 2.3 cm. The mass flow rate of the water through the tube is 0.65kg/s, and the temperature of the water in the lube averages 30C. The free-stream velocity and ambient temperature of the air are 10m/sand120C, respectively. Estimate the overall heat transfer coefficient for the heat exchanger using appropriate correlations from previous chapters.

- in a 10-m long center-current flow tubular heat exchanger, a liquid food, flowing in the inner pipe (inside diameter 5 cm), is heated from 4 to 60 C for pasteurization. In the outer tube (diameter 10 cm), hot water enters at 95 C and exits at 80 C. A) If the mass flow rate of the hot water is 5 kg/s, what is the flow rate of the pasteurized product? The specific heat of the water is 4.2 kJ/(kg C), specific heat of product is 3.8 kJ/(kg C) B) what is the log mean temperature difference C) What is the overall heat transfer coefficient for the heat exchanger based on the outside surface?arrow_forwardQuestion 2 En. Karim recently install a hot water system operates by a solar energy. The system consists of double pipe counter flow heat exchanger. Cold waters enters a tube at 22°C at a rate of 0.1 kg/s, while hot air enters the heat exchanger at 90°C at a rate of 0.3 kg/s. The specific heat for both cold water and hot air is cp = 4180 J/kg.K and c, = 1010 J/kg.K , respectively. The overall heat transfer coefficient based on the inner side of the tube is 80 W/m².K. The length of the tube is 12 m and the internal diameter of the tube is 1.2 cm. En. Karim assigned you do the complete analysis on this hot water system including to calculate the effectiveness of the heat exchanger. As an engineer, you have to determine: i. the heat capacity rates of both fluids, 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.arrow_forwardDefine working of heat exchangers by showing flow directions for parallel and counterflow.arrow_forward
- Hi I need asisstance with a thermo review problem, Thank you! A heat exchanger is used to heat air. The air enters at 300 K with a flow rate of 5 kg/s. The air is heated by a separate stream of H2O that enters the heat exchanger at 300 kPa, saturated vapor and leaves as saturated liquid. If the H2O flow rate is 0.2 kg/s, determine the exit temperature of the air (K). Cpair=1.027 kJ/kgK. Note the air and H2O areseparate streams. No mixing occurs.arrow_forwardAn air-cooled condenser has an h value of 30 W/m2-K based on the air-side area. The air-side heat transfer area is 190 m2 with air entering at 27°C and leaving at 40°C. If the condensing temperature is constant at 49°C, what is the air mass flow rate in kg/s? Let Cp(air) = 1.006 kJ/kg-K. Draw and label the temperature-flow diagram. Round off your answer to three (3) decimal places.arrow_forward1. A crossflow heat exchanger, one fluid mixed and one unmixed (oil in tubes and steam in shell), is used to heat an oil in the tubes (c = 1.9 kJ/kg°C) from 15°C to 85°C. Steam (5.2 kg/s, c = 1.86 kJ/kg°C) blows across the outside of the tube, enters at 130°C and leaves at 110°C. U. = 275 W/m²K. Calculate A. [10.84 m²]arrow_forward
