Question: rroblem 1 ( 1 5 pts ) Water ( specific heat = 4 0 0 0 J k g K ) is to be heated

rroblem 1(15 pts)
Water (specific heat =4000JkgK) is to be heated by hot air (specific heat =1000JkgK) in a double-pipe counter flow heat exchanger. Air enters the heat exchanger at 900 degC at a rate of at 0.10kgs and leaves at 150 degC . Water enters at 20 degC at a rate of 1kgs. The overall heat transfer coefficient based on the inner side of the tube is 100Wm2K. Determine the length of the tube required for a tube diameter of 0.025 m . Now, repeat the calculation for length if the heat exchanger is now a double-pipe counter flow.
