1. As a design engineer for a large heat exchanger manufacturing company, you are to provide a quick estimate on the size of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger. The heat exchanger will be used to condense steam (1 atm) within the shell by raising the temperature liquid water from 20 to 90°C within the tubes. It is desired to transfer 600kW from the steam to the liquid water. The diameter of the tubes is 1 cm and the velocity of the liquid water is not to exceed 3 m/s. Determine: a) the mass flow rate of the liquid water, b) the minimum number of tubes required in this one-shell and two-tube-pass heat exchanger, c) the steam condensation rate, and d) the tube length required to transfer 600kW, if the tubes are thin-walled and minimum number of tubes are considered.

Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at -26°c with a volumetric flow rate of 0.18 m3/s. refrigerant exits at 9 bar, 70°c. changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit can be ignored. determine the volumetric flow rate at the exit, in m3/s, and the compressor power, in kw.
