A well-insulated, shell-and-tube heat exchanger isused to heat water (cp = 4.1 8 kJ/kg · °C) in the tubes from 20 to 70°C at a rate of 4.5 kg/s. Heat is supplied by hot oil (cp = 2.30 kJ/kg · °C) that enters the shell side at 170°C at a rate of 10 kg/s. Disregarding any heat loss from the heat exchanger, determine (a) the exit temperature of the oil and(b) the rate of entropy generation in the heat exchanger.
