Answer and Explanation:

Today, USA libraries charge around 17 cents a day to a maximum of around $5 to $10, which is an elevated amount of money that many people, especially students, are unable to pay. Therefore, to avoid paying these fees and fines we should be responsible and organized. However, as many libraries charge the minimum, students do not prioritize the returning of books.

If the general fine on libraries was $10 a day, I would only borrow the books that I really need and compromise to organize my schedule in order to return the book on time. In addition, if I borrow books from the library very often, I would make sure to have a savings box for emergency cases in which I am unable to return the book on time.

Increasing the fines in libraries may not be the best option for many people who take care of books and return them on time, however, if libraries experience an increase in delays, this method could potentially encourage a more responsible behavior. For those who are responsible, some libraries eliminate these fees in exchange of donation of canned goods, which is also a good alternative.

A counter-flow double pipe heat exchanger is heat heat water from 20 degrees Celsius to 80 degrees Celsius at the rate of 1.2 kg

lakkis [162]

Answer:

$L=107.6m$

Explanation:

Cold water in: $m_{c}=1.2kg/s, C_{c}=4.18kJ/kg\°C, T_{c,in}=20\°C, T_{c,out}=80\°C$

Hot water in: $m_{h}=2kg/s, C_{h}=4.18kJ/kg\°C, T_{h,in}=160\°C, T_{h,out}=?\°C$

$D=1.5cm=0.015m, U=649W/m^{2}K, LMTD=?\°C, A_{s}=?m^{2},L=?m$

Step 1: Determine the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger

$Q=m_{c}C_{c}(T_{c,out}-T_{c,in})$

$Q=1.2*4.18*(80-20)$

$Q=300.96kW$

Step 2: Determine outlet temperature of hot water

$Q=m_{h}C_{h}(T_{h,in}-T_{h,out})$

$300.96=2*4.18*(160-T_{h,out})$

$T_{h,out}=124\°C$

Step 3: Determine the Logarithmic Mean Temperature Difference (LMTD)

$dT_{1}=T_{h,in}-T_{c,out}$

$dT_{1}=160-80$

$dT_{1}=80\°C$

$dT_{2}=T_{h,out}-T_{c,in}$

$dT_{2}=124-20$

$dT_{2}=104\°C$

$LMTD = \frac{dT_{2}-dT_{1}}{ln(\frac{dT_{2}}{dT_{1}})}$

$LMTD = \frac{104-80}{ln(\frac{104}{80})}$

$LMTD = \frac{24}{ln(1.3)}$

$LMTD = 91.48\°C$

Step 4: Determine required surface area of heat exchanger

$Q=UA_{s}LMTD$

$300.96*10^{3}=649*A_{s}*91.48$

$A_{s}=5.07m^{2}$

Step 5: Determine length of heat exchanger

$A_{s}=piDL$

$5.07=pi*0.015*L$

$L=107.57m$
