The condenser of a steam power plant operates at a pressure of 0.95 psia. The condenser consists of 100 horizontal tubes arranged in a 10 × 10 square array.

If the outer surfaces of the tubes are maintained at 80°F, determine (a) the rate of heat transfer from the steam to the cooling water and (b) the rate of condensation of steam in the condenser.
