A shell-and-tube heat exchanger having one shell pass and four tube passes is shown schematically in the following sketch. The fluid in the tubes enters at 200°C and leaves at 100°C. The temperature of the fluid is 20°C entering the shell and is 90°C leaving the shell. The overall heat transfer coefficient based on the surface area of 12 m2 is 300 W/(m2 K). Calculate the heat transfer rate between the fluids.
