Ethanol is vaporized at 78°C (hfg = 846 kJ/kg) in a double-pipe parallel-flow heat exchanger at a rate of 0.03 kg/s by hot oil (cp = 2200 J/kg·K) that enters at 120°C. If the heat transfer surface area and the overall heat transfer coefficients are 6.2 m2 and 320 W/m2·K, respectively, determine the outlet temperature and the mass flow rate of oil using (a) the LMTD method and (b) the «-NTU method.

Question

Ethanol is vaporized at 78°C (hfg = 846 kJ/kg) in a
double-pipe parallel-flow heat exchanger at a rate of 0.03 kg/s
by hot oil (cp = 2200 J/kg·K) that enters at 120°C. If the heat
transfer surface area and the overall heat transfer coefficients
are 6.2 m2 and 320 W/m2·K, respectively, determine the outlet
temperature and the mass flow rate of oil using (a) the
LMTD method and (b) the «-NTU method.
