An example problem in the "Steady Flow Devices" series.

A thin-double-pipe counter-flow heat exchanger is used to cool oil from 150°C to 40°C at a rate of 2 kg⁄s by water that enters at 22°C at a rate of 1.5 kg⁄s. Determine the rate of heat transfer within the heat exchanger and the exit temperature of the water.
