In a pharmaceutical application distilled water with a flow rate of 34560 kg/hr is to cool ethyl alcohol in a parallel flow heat exchanger. The alcohol flowing at 31320 kg/hr enters the exchanger at 75oC and is cooled to 45oC. Assuming that the water flows through the tubes and enters the exchanger at 15oC, determine, for an overall heat transfer coefficient of 0.5kW/m2K the dissipation rate, together with the required heat transfer area. The specific heat capacity of both the alcohol and water is 3.84 and 4.181kJ/kgK

Suppose there are two suppliers of distilled water, labeled firm A and firm B. Distilled water is considered to be a homogenous good (well, all water tastes the same, anyway). Let p denote the price per gallon, qA quantity sold by firm A, and qB the quantity sold by firm B. Firm A is located nearby a spring and therefore bears a production cost of cA = $1 per one gallon of water. Firm B is not located near a...

1. Water at a flow rate of = 0.25 kg/s is cooled from 70 C to 30 c by passing it through a thick-walled tube of internal diameter of Di =50 mm and an external diameter of D = 60 mm. Hot Water is cooled by blowing cold air at T? = 15 C in cross flow over the tube. Velocity of the air over the tube is 20 m/s. Evaluating the water properties at 325 K from Table A.6...

Water at a flow rate of 20,000 kg/h will be heated from 20°C to 35°C by hot water at 140°C. A 15°C hot water temperature drop is allowed. A number of 3.5 m hairpins of 3 in. (ID = 0.0779 m) by 2 in. (ID = 0.0525 m, OD = 0.0603 m) counter flow double-pipe heat exchangers with annuli and pipes, each connected in series, will be used. Hot water flows through the inner tube. Fouling factors are: Rf i...

Saturated water vapor has a flow rate of 1.5 kg/s and a pressure of 0.51 bar....

Saturated water vapor has a flow rate of 1.5 kg/s and a pressure of 0.51 bar. The vapor is to be completely condensed to saturated liquid in the shell of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger. In this case, the water vapor enters and the water exits at the same temperature, which represents a case with infinitely high m_dot * Cp for this condensing steam application. On the tube side, city water is used as the cold fluid. The city water enters...

A stream of methane at 86.06 kg/hr is burned in a boiler to heat water. The boiler is fed 47.7 % excess air. Solve for air flow rate in kg/hr. Note: Air can be treated to be 78 % N2, 21 % O2 and 1% Ar, where all percentages are in mole percents. The average molecular weight for air of this composition is 28.970 kg/kgmol

An industrial process is using river water to cool 105 kg/h of saturated steam in a heat exchanger at 0.1 bar. The cooled steam exits the heat exchanger as a saturated liquid at the same pressure of 0.1 bar to be used in the process. The river water has a volumetric flow rate of 500 ft3/s and is the coolant in the heat exchanger., having properties close to pure water (i.e., density – 1000 kg/m3). It exists the heat exchanger...
