Milk enters a heat exchanger at 200C and is heated to 750C using hot water at a temperature of 900C. 1) If exit temperature of water is 800C, assume parallel flow and determine the log mean temperature difference between water and milk.  

2) assume countercurrent flow and determine the log mean temperature difference between water and milk.

3)assume countercurrent flow and determine the overall heat transfer coefficient of heat exchanger (based on inside diameter). Assume specific heat of water as 4.18 kJ/(kg 0C).

Water is used to cool R-134a in the condenser of a heat exchanger. The refrigerant enters the counter-flow heat exchanger at 800 kPa, 80 0C and a mass flow rate of 2 kg/s. The refrigerant exits as a saturated liquid. Cooling water enters the condenser at 500 kPa and 18 0C and leaves the condenser at 30 0C. Determine the necessary mass flow rate of water. Each fluid is assumed to flow at constant pressure.

An industrial facility needs a flow of 100 gpm of hot water at 180°F, 50 psia. Two designs are being considered to make the hot water. In Design 1, the hot water is produced by injecting steam into an insulated mixing chamber through which the water passes. The water enters the chamber at 50°F, 50 psia. Steam is injected into the chamber at 325°F, 50 psia. The hot water leaves at the required flow rate and temperature. For this system...
