A heat exchanger is to heat water (cp = 4.18 kJ/kg.C) from 25 C to 60 C at a rate of 0.2 kg/s. The heating is to be accomplished by geothermal water (cp = 4.31 kJ/kg.C) available at 140 C at a mass flow rate of 0.3 kg/s. The inner tube is thin walled and has a diameter of 0.8 cm. Determine the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger and the exit temperature of geothermal water.

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...

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)...
