Problem: Steam is condensed (0.15 kg/s) by cooling water flowing inside copper
tubes. The average heat transfer coefficient and the number of tubes needed are to be
determined.
Problem: Air enters in a rectangular duct as shown. The exit temperature of the air,
the rate of heat transfer, and the fan power are to be determined.
