Question:
The radiator in an automobile is a cross-flow heat exchanger (UAs = 10 kW/K) that uses air (cp = 1.00 kJ/kg·K) to cool the engine-coolant fluid (cp = 4.00 kJ/kg·K). The engine fan draws 30°C air through this radiator at a rate of 10 kg/s while the coolant pump circulates the engine coolant at a rate of 5 kg/s. The coolant enters this radiator at 80°C. Under these conditions, the effectiveness of the radiator is 0.4. Determine
(a) The outlet temperature of the air
(b) The rate of heat transfer between the two fluids.
