A counter-flow double-piped heat exchange is to heat water from 20oC to 80oC at a rate of 1.2 kg/s. The heating is to be accompl

ished by geothermal available at 160oC at a mass flow rate of 2 kg/s. The inner tube is thin-walled and has a diameter of 1.5 cm. If the overall heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger is 640 W/m2.oC, determine the length of the heat exchanger required to achieve the desired heating using the effectiveness-NTU method.

Answer:

110 m or 11,000 cm

Explanation:

  • let mass flow rate for cold and hot fluid = M<em>c</em> and M<em>h</em> respectively
  • let specific heat for cold and hot fluid = C<em>pc</em> and C<em>ph </em>respectively
  • let heat capacity rate for cold and hot fluid = C<em>c</em> and C<em>h </em>respectively

M<em>c</em> = 1.2 kg/s and M<em>h = </em>2 kg/s

C<em>pc</em> = 4.18 kj/kg °c and C<em>ph</em> = 4.31 kj/kg °c

<u>Using effectiveness-NUT method</u>

  1. <em>First, we need to determine heat capacity rate for cold and hot fluid, and determine the dimensionless heat capacity rate</em>

C<em>c</em> = M<em>c</em> × C<em>pc</em> = 1.2 kg/s  × 4.18 kj/kg °c = 5.016 kW/°c

C<em>h = </em>M<em>h</em> × C<em>ph </em>= 2 kg/s  × 4.31 kj/kg °c = 8.62 kW/°c

From the result above cold fluid heat capacity rate is smaller

Dimensionless heat capacity rate, C = minimum capacity/maximum capacity

C= C<em>min</em>/C<em>max</em>

C = 5.016/8.62 = 0.582

          .<em>2 Second, we determine the maximum heat transfer rate, Qmax</em>

Q<em>max</em> = C<em>min </em>(Inlet Temp. of hot fluid - Inlet Temp. of cold fluid)

Q<em>max</em> = (5.016 kW/°c)(160 - 20) °c

Q<em>max</em> = (5.016 kW/°c)(140) °c = 702.24 kW

          .<em>3 Third, we determine the actual heat transfer rate, Q</em>

Q = C<em>min (</em>outlet Temp. of cold fluid - inlet Temp. of cold fluid)

Q = (5.016 kW/°c)(80 - 20) °c

Q<em>max</em> = (5.016 kW/°c)(60) °c = 303.66 kW

            .<em>4 Fourth, we determine Effectiveness of the heat exchanger, </em>ε

ε<em> </em>= Q/Qmax

ε <em>= </em>303.66 kW/702.24 kW

ε = 0.432

           .<em>5 Fifth, using appropriate  effective relation for double pipe counter flow to determine NTU for the heat exchanger</em>

NTU = \\ \frac{1}{C-1} ln(\frac{ε-1}{εc -1} )

NTU = \frac{1}{0.582-1} ln(\frac{0.432 -1}{0.432 X 0.582   -1} )

NTU = 0.661

          <em>.6 sixth, we determine Heat Exchanger surface area, As</em>

From the question, the overall heat transfer coefficient U = 640 W/m²

As = \frac{NTU C{min} }{U}

As = \frac{0.661 x 5016 W. °c }{640 W/m²}

As = 5.18 m²

            <em>.7 Finally, we determine the length of the heat exchanger, L</em>

L = \frac{As}{\pi D}

L = \frac{5.18 m² }{\pi (0.015 m)}

L= 109.91 m

L ≅ 110 m = 11,000 cm

What do you think the top TWO game elements are that directly contribute to player immersion?
fredd [130]
Sound (like music and background sound) and detail. The music and background sound is what sets the mood for the game. In horror games, the sound is sometimes uneasy to make the player feel anxious, and when something chases you the music turns into fast-pace and making the player scared and feel that adrenaline. The detail also is a great factor. The more realistic a game is, the more it feels like real life and determines if the player will get a real reaction from the game.

Answer:

# kelvin_to_celsius function is defined

# it has value_kelvin as argument

def kelvin_to_celsius(value_kelvin):

   # value_celsius is initialized to 0.0

   value_celsius = 0.0

   

   # value_celsius is calculated by

   # subtracting 273.15 from value_kelvin

   value_celsius = value_kelvin - 273.15

   # value_celsius is returned

   return value_celsius

   

# celsius_to_kelvin function is defined

# it has value_celsius as argument

def celsius_to_kelvin(value_celsius):

   # value_kelvin is initialized to 0.0

   value_kelvin = 0.0

   

   # value_kelvin is calculated by

   # adding 273.15 to value_celsius

   value_kelvin = value_celsius + 273.15

   # value_kelvin is returned

   return value_kelvin

   

value_c = 0.0

value_k = 0.0

value_c = 10.0

# value_c = 10.0 is used to test the function celsius_to_kelvin

# the result is displayed

print(value_c, 'C is', celsius_to_kelvin(value_c), 'K')

value_k = 283.15

# value_k = 283.15 is used to test the function kelvin_to_celsius

# the result is displayed

print(value_k, 'is', kelvin_to_celsius(value_k), 'C')
