A concentric tube heat exchanger is used to cool a solution of ethyl alcohol (Cp = 3810 J/kg-K) from 65.6 degrees C to 39.4 degrees C using water flowing at 6.30 kg/s at a temperature of 10 degrees C. Assume that the overall heat transfer coefficient is 568 W/m2-K. Use Cp = 4187 J/kg-K for water. A. What is the exit temperature of the water?
B. Can you use a parallel flow or counterflow heat exchanger here? Explain.
C. Calculate the rate of heat flow from the alcohol solution to the water.
D. Calculate the required heat exchanger area for a parallel flow configuration.
E. Calculate the required heat exchanger area for a counter flow configuration. What happens when you try to do this? What is the solution?

Steam at a pressure of 100 kpa and a quality of 50% initially fills a rigid vessel having a volume of 0.5 m^3. the steam is then heated, causing the pressure in the vessel to rise to 150 kpa. determine: i. the mass of the steam in the vessel. ii. the temperature and quality of the steam after the heating process. ii the mass of the vapour, mg and liquid, m in the vessel after the heating process. if the steam in the vessel is now further heated, what would the pressure and temperature in the vessel be when all steam has turned into saturated vapour? b. sketch the processes in part (a) and part (b) on p-v and t-v diagrams, indicating clearly the temperatures, pressures and the paths. c.
