    This document provides information to solve an exercise involving heat transfer across the cold and hot sides of a heat exchanger. It gives the inlet and outlet temperatures and mass flow rates for the cold and hot fluids. It also provides the heat transfer coefficient U and calculates the heat transfer rate Q, outlet enthalpy and temperature for the hot side, log mean temperature difference, and the correction factor and heat exchanger area needed.

    Solution exercise 3

    Cold side
    Tc,in = 22C
    Tc,out = 37C
    m& c = 5 kg/s

    Hot side
    Th,in = 100C
    ph = 5 bar
    m& h = 5.2 kg/s

    U = 400 W/mK

    Solution
    Tc =

    Tc,in Tc,out
    2

    = 29.5C

    c p c = 4182.6 J/kgK

    Q = m& c c pc (Tc,out Tc,in ) = 313695 W


    hh,in = 373.7 kJ/kg

    Q = m& h (hh,in hh,out ) hh,out = 313.37 kJ/kg Th,out = 40.5C


    LMTD = 36.3C (determined for counter-flow HEX correction with F)
    Q = U.A.F.LMTD
