A single-pass cross-flow heat exchanger is used to cool jacket water (cp= 1.0 Btu/lbm·°F) of a diesel engine from 190°F to 140°F, using air (cp= 0.245 Btu/lbm·°F) with inlet temperature of 90°F. Both air flow and water flow are unmixed. If the water and air mass flow rates are 92,000 lbm/h and 400,000 lbm/h, respectively, determine the log mean temperature difference for this heat exchanger.
