Answer:
Oil has the smaller heat capacity. The effectiveness of the heat exchanger is 0.80.
Explanation:
Part 1:
In order to know which fluid has the smaller heat capacity we need to consider the heat equation below:
Q = CΔT, where Q is the heat exchanged, C is the heat capacity and ΔT is the variation in temperature.
As the heat exchange is the same for both fluids, the smaller the temperature variation, the smaller the heat capacity.
Water: ΔT = 120 °F
Oil: ΔT = 80 °F
Therefore, oil is the fluid with the smallest heat capacity.
Part 2:
The effectiveness of a counter-flow heat exchanger is given by the equation bellow:
Th1: initial temperature of the hot fluid
Th2: final temperature of the hot
Tc1: initial temperature of the cold fluid
Answer:
Kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of an object and also directly proportional to the square of the velocity of that object:
Notice that if we keep velocity constant and only increase the mass of a object, the kinetic energy of that object would increase, as we've already emphasized the direct relationship between the kinetic energy term and the mass term.
Let's take a simple example: assume that object 1 and object 2 are both moving at the same velocity but object 1 has a much lower mass than object 2. According to the equation, object 1 has lower kinetic energy. This object can then transform all of its kinetic energy into some other form, say, heat the ground. The heat transferred will be significantly lower than by the object 2 moving at the same velocity but having a much greater mass.
