Question: Current Attempt in Progress Steamenters a counterflow heat exchanger operating at steady state at 0 . 0 6 MPa with a quality of 0 .

Current Attempt in Progress
Steamenters a counterflow heat exchanger operating at steady state at 0.06 MPa with a quality of 0.9 and exits at the same pressure
as saturated liquid. The steam mass flow rate is 1.5kgmin. A separate stream of air with a mass flow rate of 100kgmin enters at 30C
and exits at 60C. The ideal gas model with cp=1005kJkg*K can be assumed for air. Kinetic and potential energy effects are
negligible.
Determine the temperature of the entering steam, in C :
For the overall heat exchanger as the control volume, what is the rate of heat transfer, in kW .
