Question #2: Energy Balance on a Flow System with a Pump and Heat Exchanger.
Water stored in large, well-insulated storage tank at 21.0C and atmospheric pressure
is being pumped at steady state from this tank by a pump at the rate of 45m3h. The
motor driving the pump supplies energy at the rate of 7.5kW. The water is used as a
cooling medium and passes through a heat exchanger where 255kW of heat is added to
the water. The heated water then flows to a second, large, vented tank, which is 25m
above the first tank. Determine the final temperature of the water delivered to the
second tank.
