Engine oil (c_p%3D2100 J/(kg-K)) is heated from 25 °C to 70 °C. The oil flows at a rate 0.5kgsec in a 2cm diameter thin walled copper tube. The oil is heated by condensing steam at 1000C on the outside of the 2cm tube in a counter-flow heat exchanger. The latent heat of vaporization for the steam is h_fg%32257kJkg. The overall heat transfer coefficient is U=1000 Wm2K, based on the 2cm diameter thin walled copper tube area. A) Find the overall heat transfer rate to the oil. B) Find the log-mean temperature difference.

Question
Engine oil (c_p=2100 J/(kg-K) ) is heated from 25 °C to 70 °C. The oil flows at a rate 0.5kgsec in a 2cm
diameter thin walled copper tube. The oil is heated by condensing steam at 100oCon the outside of the
2cm tube in a counter-flow heat exchanger. The latent heat of vaporization for the steam is
h_fg=2257kJkg. The overall heat transfer coefficient is U=1000WM2K, based on the 2cm diameter thin
walled copper tube area.
A) Find the overall heat transfer rate to the oil.
B) Find the log-mean temperature difference.
