23–104C There are two heat exchangers that can meet the
heat transfer requirements of a facility. One is smaller and
cheaper but requires a larger pump, while the other is larger
and more expensive but has a smaller pressure drop and thus
requires a smaller pump. Both heat exchangers have the same
life expectancy and meet all other requirements. Explain which
heat exchanger you would choose under what conditions.
(II) (a) How much energy is required to bring a 1.0-L pot ofwater at 20°C to 100°C? (b) For how long could this amountof energy run a 60-W lightbulb?
(II) A certain car has 14.0 L of liquid coolant circulating at a
temperature of 93°C through the engine's cooling system.
Assume that, in this normal condition, the coolant com-
pletely fills the 3.5-L volume of the aluminum radiator and
the 10.5-L internal cavities within the aluminum engine. When
a car overheats, the radiator, engine, and coolant expand
and a small reservoir connected to the radiator catches any
resultant coolant overflow. Estimate how much coolant
overflows to the reservoir if the system goes from 93°C
to 105°C. Model the radiator and engine as hollow shells
of aluminum. The coefficient of volume expansion for
coolant is ß = 410 × 10-6/C°.
