A shell-and-tube heat exchanger operates with two shell passes and four tube passes. The shell fluid is ethylene glycol, which enters at 140 °C and leaves at 80 °C with a flow rate of 4500 kg/h and specific heat of 2742 J/kg. C. Water flows in the tubes, entering at 35 °C and leaving at 85 °C and specific heat of 4.180 kJ/kg. C. The overall heat-transfer coefficient for this arrangement is 850 W/m². C. Calculate the flow rate of water required and the area of the heat exchanger.
