Cooling water available at 10°C is used to condense steam at 30°C in the condenser of a power plant at a rate of 0.60 kg/s by circulating the cooling water through a bank of 14-m-long 1.2-cm-internal-diameter thin copper tubes. Water enters the tubes at a mean velocity of 4 m/s and leaves at a temperature of 24°C. The tubes are nearly isothermal at 30°C. Determine the average heat transfer coefficient between the water, the tubes, and the number of tubes needed to achieve the indicated heat transfer rate in the condenser. (Round the number of tubes to the next whole number.) The properties of water at the average temperature of (10°C + 24°C)/2 = 17°C are: p = 998.7 kg/m° Cp = 4183.8 J/kg Also, the heat of vaporization of water at 30°C is hfg = 2431 kJ/kg

Water from a natural river source at 22°C and a flow rate of 25,000 kg/s is used as the heat sink for a condenser unit at a large manufacturing company. The condenser consist of 20,000 tubes and is used to condense steam to liquid at 50°C. construction and 20mm nominal diameter. The condenser is a one The tubes are of thin wall shell, two-tube-passes heat exchanger. convective heat transfer coefficient of 11,500 W/m².K on the tube outer surface and the water flowing in the tubes is required to remove heat at a rate of 2 x 10° W. Environmental laws require that the effluent from the condensing unit to the river source should be less than 35°C. Using both the e-NTU and LMTD methods, calculate the outlet temperature of the cooling water and the required tube length per pass. The specification is a Use T =27°C; and for flow through the tubes use, Nu, = 0.023 Re Pr°4
