A hot fluid of specific heat 4100 J/kg K flows through a parallel flow heat exchanger at the rate of 3.5 kg/min with an inlet temp. of 105C. A cold fluid of specific heat 2350 J/kg K flows in at a rate of 9 kg/min and with inlet temperature 25C. Make calculations for maximum possible effectiveness if the fluid flow conforms to parallel flow arrangement.
