A desktop computer is to be cooled by a fan. The electronic components of the computer consume 80 W of power under full-load conditions. The computer is to operate in environments at temperatures up to 50°C and at elevations up to 3000 m where the atmospheric pressure is 70.12 kPa. The exit temperature of air is not to exceed 60°C to meet the reliability requirements. Also, the average velocity of air is not to exceed 120 m/min at the exit of the computer case, where the fan is installed to keep the noise level down. Specify the flow rate of the fan that needs to be installed and the diameter of the casing of the fan.
Consider a shell-and-tube water-to-water heat exchanger with identical mass flow rates for both the hot- and cold-water streams. Now the mass flow rate of the cold water is reduced by half. Will the effectiveness of this heat exchanger increase, decrease, or remain the same as a result of this modification? Explain. Assume the overall heat transfer coefficient and the inlet temperatures remain the same.
A jacketted-agitated vessel, fitted with a turbine agitator, is used for heating a water stream from 10°C to 54°C. The average heat transfer coefficient for water at the vessel’s inner-wall can be estimated from Nu = 0.76Re2/3Pr1/3. Saturated steam at 100°C condenses in the jacket, for which the average heat transfer coefficient in kW/m2·K is ho=5 13.1(Tg - Tw)20.25. The vessel dimensions are Dt = 0.6 m, H = 0.6 m and Da = 0.2 m. The agitator speed is 60 rpm. Calculate the mass rate of water that can be heated in this agitated vessel steadily.
Steam is to be condensed on the shell side of a 1-shell-pass and 8-tube-passes condenser, with 50 tubes in each pass, at 30°C (hfg = 2431 kJ/kg). Cooling water (cp = 4180 J/kg·K) enters the tubes at 15°C at a rate of 1800 kg/h. The tubes are thin-walled, and have a diameter of 1.5 cm and length of 2 m per pass. If the overall heat transfer coefficient is 3000 W/m2·K, determine (a) the rate of heat transfer and (b) the rate of condensation of steam.
