Question:

A single-pass cross-flow heat exchanger with both fluids unmixed has water entering at 16°C and exiting at 33°C, while oil (c_p= 1.93 kJ/kg·K and Ï = 870 kg/m³) flowing at 0.19 m³/min enters at 38°C and exits at 29°C. If the surface area of the heat exchanger is 20 m², determine

(a) The NTU value

(b) The value of the overall heat transfer coefficient.
