A concentric tube heat exchanger for cooling lubricating oil consists of a thin-walled inner tube of 25 mm diameter carrying water and an outer tube of 45 mm diameter carrying the oil. The exchanger operates in countercurrent flow with an overall heat transfer coefficient of 55 W/m2 K and the tabulated average properties given below. Mass flow rates of oil and water are both 0.1 kg/s, oil enters the exchanger at 100°C, and water enters the exchanger at 30°C. (a) If the outlet temperature of the oil is 50°C, determine the total rate of heat transfer and the outlet temperature of the water. (b) Determine the length required for the heat exchanger.
**Oil inlet temp is 100 C, oil outlet temp is 50C, water inlet is 30C. Mass flow rates of both water and oil are 0.1 kg/s**

Question B2. An oil which has a heat capacity is 2.30 kJ/(kg·K) is being cooled in a heat exchanger from 372 K to 350 K and flows inside the tube at a rate of 3600 kg/h. A flow of 1450 kg water/h enters at 289 K for cooling and flow outside the tube. Calculate the water outlet temperature and heat transfer area if the overall heat transfer coefficient is 340 W/(m2 K) and the streams are countercurrent. (17.5 marks)
A counter-flow heat exchanger is stated to have an overall heat transfer coefficient of 284 W/m2.K when operating at design and clean conditions. Hot fluid enters the tube side at 101°C and exits at 71°C, while cold fluid enters the shell side at 27°C and exits at 42°C. After a period of use, built-up scale in the heat exchanger gives a fouling factor of 0.0004 m2 K/W. The surface area is 93 m². Assume both hot and cold fluids have...
