Air (cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·°C) is to be preheated by hot exhaust gases in a cross-flow heat exchanger before it enters the furnace. Air enters the heat exchanger at 95 kPa and 20°C at a rate of 0.6 m3/s. The combustion gases (cp = 1.10 kJ/kg·°C) enter at 160°C at a rate of 0.95 kg/s and leave at 95°C. Determine the rate of heat transfer to the air and its outlet temperature.
