Steam condensing at 120°C (h = 2203 kJ/kg) on the shell side of (1 shell and 12 thin- walled tubes) heat exchanger. Water (18 °C, C =4180 J/kg°C) enters the tube @ 2.5 kg/s and the temperature difference between the two fluids at the exit is 54°C, assume LMTD correction factor of 1.0, for each tube: length = 2.7 m, diameter = 2.4 cm. What is the rate of condensation of steam (kg/min) ?

Steam condensing at 120°C (h= 2203 kJ/kg) on the shell side of (1 shell and 12 thin-
walled tubes) heat exchanger. Water (18 °C, C_ =4180 J/kg.°C) enters the tube @ 2.5
kg/s and the temperature difference between the two fluids at the exit is 54°C, assume
LMTD correction factor of 1.0, for each tube: length = 2.7 m, diameter = 2.4 cm. What
is the rate of condensation of steam (kg/min) ?
