A heavy hydrocarbon oil which has a Cp = 2.30 kJ/kg.K is being cooled in a heat exchanger from 371.9 K to 349.7 K and flows inside the tube at a rate of 3630 kg/h. A flow of 1450 kg water/hrenters at 288.6 K for cooling and flows outside the tube. If the water has Cpw = 4.187 kJ/kg.K, a.calculate the water outlet temperature and heat transfer area if the overall heat transfer coefficient, U = 340 W/m2.K and the streams are countercurrent. b.Repeat (a) for parallel flow
