Question: A pure substance X flows through a heat exchanger under steady conditions as shown in the figure below. The inlet temperature and pressure are 350K

A pure substance X flows through a heat exchanger under steady conditions as shown in the figure below. The inlet temperature and pressure are 350K and 8 bars, respectively, and outlet temperature and pressure are 250 K and 1 bar, respectively.

A pure substance X flows through a heat exchanger under steady conditions

Estimate the amount of heat added to or removed from substance X using the following information provided from the solutions of the PengRobinson equation of state at the inlet and outlet conditions:

as shown in the figure below. The inlet temperature and pressure are
