A concentric tube heat exchanger is used to cool a solution of ethyl alcohol flowing at 6.93 kg/s (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?

Afoot bridge is made as a simple deck, 4 m long, with a cross section 2 m (wide) and 20 cm thick, and made of wood. the deck is supported at the two ends. the maximum load allowable on the bridge is 10 tons, provided it is uniformly distributed on the deck. to sense this load, a strain gauge is placed at the center of the bridge and its resistance is monitored. if the sensor has a nominal resistance of 350 s2 and a gauge factor of 3.6, what is the reading of the strain gauge at maximum load? the modulus of elasticity for the wood used in the construction is 10 gpa.
