In oil and gas application, a thin-walled double pipe parallel flow heat exchanger is used to heat a chemical whose specific heat is 1800 J/kg.C with hot water (cp=4180 J/kg.C). The chemical enters at 20C at a rate of 2 kg/s. The heat transfer surface area of the heat exchanger is 7m2and the overall heat transfer coefficient is 1200 W/m2.C. Determine the outlet temperatures of the chemical and the water
