Question
Answer both questions 3 & 4

Transcribed Image Text:Question 3:
Water flowing at the rate of 1.1 kg/s in a 2-4 shell-and-tube heat
exchanger is heated from 50 °C to 90 °C by an oil having a heat
capacity of 1.9 kJ/kg.K. The oil enters the heat exchanger at 125
°C and leaves at 90 °C. Calculate the area of the exchanger if the
overall heat-transfer coefficient is 250 W/m².K.
Question 4:
A well stirred storage vessel is originally filled with 500 kg of
20 wt % ethanol solution. The operator decided to dilute the
solution in the vessel by flowing a 10 wt % ethanol solution at a
rate of 1000 kg/h into the vessel and withdrawing the well
stirred solution from the vessel at a rate of 500 kg/h.
(a) Calculate the time it takes the solution in the vessel to reach
a concentration of 15 wt % ethanol. (b) If the vessel can only
hold 1500 kg of the solution, calculate the ethanol concentration
when the vessel is completely filled. Assume that the density of
ethanol solution during the operation remains essentially
constant within the ethanol concentration range of operation.
