![2.
Refrigerant-134a is to be cooled by water in a condenser. The refrigerant
enters the condenser with a mass flow rate of 7 kg/min at 1 MPa and 70 °C and
leaves at 35 °C. The cooling water enters at 300 kPa and 15 °C and leaves at 25
°C. Neglecting any pressure drops, determine
(a) the mass flow rate of the cooling water required
(b) the heat transfer rate from the refrigerant to water.
