I need help solving this chemical engineering energy balance problem. Please provide a detailed step-by-step solution with formulas used and final answers.
Hot water enters a heat exchanger at 120C with a flow rate of 2 kg/s.
Cold water enters at 30C with a flow rate of 3 kg/s.
Assume:
Specific heat capacity (Cp) of water = 4.18 kJ/kgK
No heat loss to surroundings
The outlet temperature of hot water is 80C
Required:
Calculate the heat transferred (kW).
Determine the outlet temperature of the cold water.
Please show all energy balance equations and calculation steps clearly.
