Question: ( a ) Oil ( C p = 1 9 2 0 ( J ) k g - 1 K - 1 ) at an

(a) Oil (Cp=1920(J)kg-1K-1) at an initial temperature of 180C flows through a double
pipe parallel flow heat exchanger with a rate of 330kgh-1 to heat water
, density =998kgm-3) flowing at 3dm3min-1 from 5C to
50C.
(i) What is the temperature of the oil at the outlet?
[2 marks]
(ii) What is the heat transfer area required for an overall heat transfer
coefficient of {:0.4(kW)m-2K-1)?
[5 marks]
(iii) Determine the number of transfer units (NTU).
[2 marks]
(iv) Calculate the effectiveness of the heat exchanger.
