n open feedwater heater operates at steady state with liquid water entering inlet 1 at 10 bar, 50°C. A separate stream of steam
enters inlet 2 at 10 bar and 200°C with a mass flow rate of 16 kg/s. Saturated liquid at 10 bar exits the feedwater heater at exit 3. Ignoring heat trans-fer with the surroundings and neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the mass flow rate, in kg/s, of the steam at inlet

Solution:
As per the question:
System Load = 96000 Btuh
Temperature, T =
Temperature rise, T' =
Now,
The system load is taken to be at constant pressure, then:
Specific heat of air,
Now, for a rise of in temeprature:
Now, for :
