Question: For the heat exchanger below: Plot the temperature distribution for the two fluids ( i . e . , oil and water ) ? Classify

For the heat exchanger below:
Plot the temperature distribution for the two fluids (i.e., oil and water)?
Classify the heat exchanger based on the flow direction (i.e., parallel or counter flow)?
Using the LMTD, find the required length to achieve the stated temperature at the outlets?
If the available length at the site is less than the length that you have found in "3", what would you do to ensure that the process is still achievable under this constraint?
oil:
moil=0.15kgs
Tin=100C
c=2131Jkg-C
h=38.8Wm2-C
Tout=60C
water:
Tin=25C
Tout=50C
h=2250Wm2-C
D1=30mm
D0=50mm
For the heat exchanger below: Plot the
