A parallel flow heat exchanger is used to transfer heat from hot water at 80oC, flowing at 5 L/min to cold water at 15oC which is flowing at a rate of 15 L/min. The overall heat transfer coefficient is 2000 W/m2oC and the area is 0.2m2.

Calculate the heat transfer rate, the outlet temperature of the cold water.

Hot water enters a counter-flow double-pipe heat exchanger at 180F with a velocity of 5 ft/s. Cold water at 80F flows at 3 ft/s in the outer section of the exchanger. The diameter of the inner pipe is 1 inch, the pipe wall thickness is 1/8", and the outer pipe diameter is 2 inches. The overall heat transfer coefficient times area per unit length UA/L = 150 Btu/hr-ft-F. If the exchanger is 16 feet long, what is the exit temperature...

A 1.5cm inside diameter tube has water flowing in it at a flow rate such that the Reynolds number is 50,000. The water enters the tube at 10oC and the tube wall temperature is maintained at 15oC higher than the average water bulk temperature. Calculate: a) the amount of heat transfer required to achieve a 10oC increase in water temperature (in W) b) the length of the tube to achieve this amount of heat transfer (in meters)
