Saturated propane vapor at 2:00 x 102 psia is fed to a well-insulated heat exchanger at a rate of 3:00 x 103 SCFH (standard cubic feet per hour). The propane leaves the exchanger as a saturated liquid (i.e., a liquid at its boiling point) at the same pressure. Cooling water enters the exchanger at70°F, flowing cocurrently (in the same direction) with the propane. The temperature difference between the outlet streams (liquid propane and water) is 15°F.(a) What is the outlet temperature of the water stream? (Use the Antoine equation.) Is the outlet water temperature less than or greater than the outlet propane temperature? Briefly explain.(b) Estimate the rate (Btu/h) at which heat must be transferred from the propane to the water in the heat exchanger and the required flow rate (lbm/h) of the water. (You will need to write two separate energy balances.) Assume the heat capacity of liquid water is constant at 1.00 Btu/(lb m°F) and neglect heat losses to the outside and the effects of…
Air (Cp = 1005 J/kg °C) enters a cross-flow heat exchanger at 10 C at a rate of 3 kg/s, where it is heated by a hot water stream (Cp = 4190 J/kg °C) that enters the heat exchanger at 95 °C at a rate of 1 kg/s. Determine the maximum heat transfer rate and the outlet temperatures of the cold and the hot water streams for that case.
A thin-walled, double-tube, counterflow heat exchanger is used to cool oil (Cp = 2.20 kJ/kg °C) from 150 to 40°C at a rate of 2 kg/s by means of water (Cp = 4.18 kJ/ kg °C), which enters at 22°C at a rate of 1.5 kg/s. Determine the rate of heat transfer in the exchanger and the leaving temperature of the water.
