Hot oil is to be cooled by water in a 1-shell-pass and 8-tube-passes heat exchanger. The tubes are thin-walled and are made of copper with an internal diameter of 1.4 cm. The length of each tube pass in the heat exchanger is 5 m, and the overall heat transfer coefficient is 310 W/m2.K. Water flows through the tubes at a rate of 0.2 kg/s, and the oil through the shell at a rate of 0.3 kg/is. The water and the oil enter at temperatures of 20 C and 150 C, respectively. Determine the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger and the outlet temperatures of the water and the oil.
