An automobile radiator may be viewed as a cross-flow heat exchanger with both fluids unmixed. Water enters the radiator at a flow rate of 0.05 kg/s and a temperature of 400 K, and leaves the radiator at 330 K. The water is cooled by air that enters at a rate of 0.75 kg/s with a temperature of 300 K. (a) If the overall heat transfer coefficient is 200 W/m2K, what is the required heat transfer surface area

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.

Steel is coated with a thin layer of ceramic to protect against corrosion. what do you expect to happen to the coating when the temperature of the steel is increased significantly? explain.

Water at 70°f and streams enter the mixing chamber at the same mass flow rate, determine the temperature and the quality of the exiting stream. 0 psia is heated in a chamber by mixing it with saturated water vapor at 20 psia. if both streams enters the mixing chamber at the same mass flow rate, determine the temperature and the quality of the existing system.
