Chapter 11, Problem 11.44P

Saturated water vapor leaves a steam turbine at a flowrate of 1.5 kg/s and a pressure of 0.51 bar. The vapor isto be completely condensed to saturated liquid in ashell-and-tube heat exchanger that uses city water as the cold fluid. The water enters the thin-walled tubesat 17°C and is to leave al 57°C. Assuming an overall heat transfer coefficient of 2000  W/m 2 K , determinethe required heat exchanger surface area and the water flow rate. After extended operation, fouling causesthe overall heat transfer coefficient to decrease to 1000  W/m 2 K . and to completely condense the vapor, there must be an attendant reduction in the vapor flow rate. For the same water inlet temperature and flowrate, what is the new vapor flow rate required for complete condensation?

A heat exchanger is heating water on the tube side with steam condensing on the shell side.  The water is entering at 45 0 F and exiting at 175 0 F.  No instruments are available for measuring the tube side water flow but condensed steam from the shell side is being collected at a rate of 43 GPM.  If the tube area of the exchanger is 350 Ft2 , and the overall heat transfer coefficient clean was 900 BTU/Hr.Ft2 F0, how much has the overall heat transfer coefficient changed, if at all?  Note:  Latent heat for water/steam at 212 0 F is 970 BTU per pound of water.  A gallon of water weighs 8.34 lbs.
Question 2 En. Karim recently install a hot water system operates by a solar energy. The system consists of double pipe counter flow heat exchanger. Cold waters enters a tube at 22°C at a rate of 0.1 kg/s, while hot air enters the heat exchanger at 90°C at a rate of 0.3 kg/s. The specific heat for both cold water and hot air is cp = 4180 J/kg.K and c, = 1010 J/kg.K , respectively. The overall heat transfer coefficient based on the inner side of the tube is 80 W/m².K. The length of the tube is 12 m and the internal diameter of the tube is 1.2 cm. En. Karim assigned you do the complete analysis on this hot water system including to calculate the effectiveness of the heat exchanger. As an engineer, you have to determine: i. the heat capacity rates of both fluids, ii. the maximum rate of heat transfer (kW), iii. the effectiveness of the heat exchanger (NTU method), iv. the actual rate of heat transfer (kW), and v. the outlet temperatures of both cold water and hot air.
The condenser of a room air conditioner is designedto reject heat at a rate of 15,000 kJ/h from refrigerant-134aas the refrigerant is condensed at a temperature of 408C. Air(cp 5 1005 J/kg?K) flows across the finned condenser coils,entering at 258C and leaving at 358C. If the overall heat transfer coefficient based on the refrigerant side is 150 W/m2?K,determine the heat transfer area on the refrigerant side.
