Question: Mass flow equal to 0 . 5 kg / s of water flows through a heat exchanger. It heats saturated liquid R - 1 3

Mass flow equal to 0.5 kg/s of water flows through a heat exchanger. It heats saturated liquid R-134a from T =-30C to a saturated vapor at T =-20C at a mass flow rate of 0.25 kg/s. The water enters the heat exchanger at P =300 kPa and T =150 C. It exits at 75 kPa. Using the property tables for R-134a and water, what is the enthalpy of the water at the exit?
For the heat exchanger in Question 2a, what is the exit temperature of the water? Use the property tables for water.
