Question
In the condenser of a thermoelectric plant, steam will be condensed at a temperature of 50°C by using cooling water from a nearby lake, which enters the condenser tubes at 18°C at a rate of 101 kg/s and leaves at 27°C Determine the rate of condensation of the vapor in the condenser.
Expert Solution
Step 1
The principle of heat balance is used to solve the problem that is heat absorbed by the lake water will be equal to the heat released by steam.
