Exhaust gases from a power plant are used to preheat air in a cross-flow heat exchanger. The exhaust gases enter the heat exchanger at 450°C and leave at 200°C. The air enters the heat exchanger at 70°C, leaves at 250°C, and has a mass flow rate of 10 kg/s. Assume the properties of the exhaust gases can be approximated by those of air. The overall heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger is 154 W/(m2 K). Calculate the heat exchanger surface area required if (a) the air is unmixed and the exhaust gases are mixed and (b) both fluids are unmixed.
GIVEN
• Cross-flow heat exchanger – exhaust gas to air
• Exhaust temperatures
? Te,in = 450°C
? Te,out = 200°C
• Air temperatures
? Ta,in = 70°C
? Ta,out = 250°C
• Air flow rate m a= 10 kg/s
• Overall heat transfer coefficient (U) = 154 W/(m2 K)
FIND
