Determine the rate of heat transfer and the exit temperature


Heating up water for your morning shower provides an excellent example of heat exchange (and mixing that you control). Consider the cold water (Cp = 4.18kJ/kg°C) leading to your shower enters a counter-­-flow heat exchanger at a rate of 0.5kg/s and 10°C. The water is heated to a more comfortable 42°C by hot water (Cp = 4.20 kJ/kg°C) that enters at 95°C at 2.5 kg/s. Determine the rate of heat transfer and the exit temperature of the hot water.
