Observation and Calculations:

For reading 1st and 2nd


Hot stream Flow rate=qh=1L/min=1.6667*10^-5 (m^3/s)
Cold stream Flow rate=qc=2L/min=3.3333*10^-5 (m^3/s)
For reading 3rd and 4th
Hot stream Flow rate=qh= 2L/min=3.3333*10^-5 (m^3/s)
Cold stream Flow rate=qc= 1L/min=1.6667*10^-5 (m^3/s)
Note: 1st and 3rd readings are for Co-Current flow while 2nd and 4th readings are for
Counter-Current flow.
