Question
Water (Cp = 4180 J/kg-°C) enters the 2.5-
cm internal-diameter tube of a double-pipe
counter-flow heat exchanger at 17°C at a
rate of 3 kg/s. It is heated by steam
condensing at 120°C (hfg = 2203 kJ/kg) in
the shell. If the overall heat transfer
coefficient of the heat exchanger is 1500
W/m2-°C, determine the length of the tube
required in order to heat the water to 80°C.
