Question:

A single-pass, cross-flow heat exchanger uses hot exhaust gases (mixed) to heat water (unmixed) from 30 to 80°C at a rate of 3 kg/s. The exhaust gases, having thermo physical properties similar to air, enter and exit the exchanger at 225 and 100°C, respectively. If the overall heat transfer coefficient is 200 W/m2 ∙ K, estimate the required surface area.
