A hydraulic pump operates at 140 bars and delivers oil at 0.001 m3/s to hydraulic actuator. Oil discharges through the pressure relief valve (PRV) during 60% of the cycle time. The pump has an overall efficiency of 82% and 15% of the power is lost due to frictional losses in the hydraulic lines. What heat exchanger rating is required to dissipate all the generated heat?

Heat Exchangers
Heat exchangers are the types of equipment that are primarily employed to transfer the thermal energy from one fluid to another, provided that one of the fluids should be at a higher thermal energy content than the other fluid.
Heat Exchanger
The heat exchanger is a combination of two words ''Heat'' and ''Exchanger''. It is a mechanical device that is used to exchange heat energy between two fluids.
