A thin-walled double-pipe counter-flow heat exchangeris used to cool oil (cp=2.20 kJ/kg·°C) from 150 to 40°Cat a rate of 2 kg/s by water (cp=4.18 kJ/kg·°C) that enters at22°C at a rate of 1.5 kg/s. Determine the rate of heat transferin the heat exchanger and the exit temperature of water.

Respuesta :

The rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger is 484 kW

The exit temperature of water is 99.2°C

Explanation:

Given -

Specific heat of oil, Coil = 2.2 KJ/Kg°C

Specific heat of water, Cwater = 4.18 KJ/Kg°C

ΔEsystem = Ein - Eout

Where E is the energy

Here, change in kinetic and potential energy of the fluid stream are negligible.

Therefore,

ΔEsystem = Ein - Eout = 0

Ein = Eout

mh₁ = Qout + mh₂ (since Δke ≅ Δpe ≅ 0)

Qout = mCp (T1 - T2)

The rate of heat transfer from oil -

Q = [m X Coil (Tin - Tout)]

Q = (2 kg/s) (2.2 KJ/Kg°C) (150°C - 40°C)

Q = 484 kW

Heat lost by oil is gained by water.

Therefore, the outlet temperature of the water is

Q = [m X Cwater (Tout - Tin)]

Tout = Tin + Q/ m X Cwater

Tout = 22°C + 484 kJ/s/ (1.5 kg/s) (4.18 kJ/kg°C)

Tout = 99.2°C

a. The rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger is equal to 484 kW.

b. The exit temperature of water is equal to 80.71°C.

Given the following data:

  • Specific heat capacity of oil = 2.20 kJ/kg°C.
  • Specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 kJ/kg°C.
  • Initial temperature = 40°C.
  • Final temperature = 150°C.
  • Rate for oil = 2 kg/s
  • Temperature in = 22°C
  • Rate for water = 1.5 kg/s

a. To determine the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger, we would apply the law of conservation of energy:

[tex]\Delta E = E_{in} -E_{out} =0[/tex]

Thus, rate of heat transfer from oil in the heat exchanger is given by the formula:

[tex]Q_o = m_oc_o\theta\\\\Q_o= 2 \times 2.2 \times (150-40)\\\\Q_o = 4.4 \times 110[/tex]

Heat transfer = 484 kW

b. To determine the exit temperature of water:

Heat lost by oil is equal to the heat gained by the water according to the law of conservation of energy:

[tex]Q_o = Q_w\\\\Q_o = m_wc_w(T_{out} - T_{in})\\\\T_{out}=\frac{Q\; +\;T_{in} }{m_wc_w}[/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]T_{out}=\frac{484\; +\;22 }{1.5 \times 4.18}\\\\T_{out}=\frac{506}{6.27}[/tex]

Exit temperature = 80.71°C
