5. Hot exhaust gases, which enter a finned-tube, cross-flow heat exchanger at 300 °C and leave at 100 °C, are used to heat pressurized water at a flow rate of 1 kg/s from 35 °C to 125 °C. The specific heat of water at the average water temperature is 4197 J/kg. K. The overall heat transfer coefficient based on the gas-side surface area is Uh = 100 W/m².K. Determine the required gas-side surface area An using the LMTD and ɛ –NTU method.

5.
Hot exhaust gases, which enter a finned-tube, cross-flow heat exchanger at 300 °C and leave at
100 °C, are used to heat pressurized water at a flow rate of 1 kg/s from 35 °C 125 °C. The
specific heat of water at the average water temperature is 4197 J/kg. K. The overall heat
transfer coefficient based on the gas-side surface area is U₁ = 100 W/m².K. Determine the
required gas-side surface area A₁ using the LMTD and & -NTU method.
