A professor has developed a complicated process for making heat continuously available at an elevated temperature. Saturated steam at 1000 C is the only source of energy. Assuming that there is plenty of cooling water available at 00 C, what is the maximum temperature level at which heat in the amount of 200 kJ can be made available for each kilogram of steam flowing through the process?
Physical properties of saturated steam at 100 C:
H= 2676 kJ/kg
V= 1.673 m3/kg
S= 7.355 kJ/kg.K
Physical properties of liquid water at 0 C:
H= -0.04 kJ/kg
V= 0.001 m3/kg
S= 0.00 kJ/kg.K

An adiabatic heat exchanger is one for which no heat is exchanged with the surroundings. All of the heat lost by the hot stream is transferred to the cold stream in this adiabatic process. In a proposed process, propane gas enters a continuous adiabatic heat exchanger at 45 °C and 265 kPa and exits at 255 °C. Superheated steam at 300 °C and 7.0 bar enters the exchanger flowing countercurrently to the propane and exits as a saturated liquid at...
