Saturated steam vapor leaves a steam turbine at a massflow rate of 2 kg/s and a pressure of 0.5 atm, as shown in the following diagram. Design a heat exchanger to condense the vapor to the saturated liquid state using water at 10°C as the coolant. Use a condensing heat

transfer coefficient in the middle range given in Table 1.5. In Chapter 9, methods for calculating the condensing heat transfer coefficient are given.

Data from in Table 1.5
