A co-flowing heat exchanger receives air at 800K and 15 MPa and water at 15oC and 100 kPa. The two flows exchange energy as they flow alongside each other to the exit, where the air should be cooled to 350K. Investigate the range of water flows necessary per kilogram per second of air flow and the possible water exit temperatures, with the restriction that the minimum temperature difference between the water and air should be 25oC. Include an estimation for the overall entropy generation in the process per kilogram of air flow. Support your analysis with graphical plots whenever possible to make your analysis easy to follow and understand. Assume that the heat exchanger loses heat to the environment which is at 4oC and estimate the range of that heat loss per kg/s of air flow in order not to violate the Second Law of Thermodynamics (i. e. in order not to get a negative entropy generation amount).

An external consultant recommends that a plant installs a bank of capacitors for power factor correction. this will reduce the peak electrical demand charges by an average of 93 kw every month. the plant current pays $13 per kw in peak demand charges. the capacitor bank will include 223 kw of fixed capacitors, and 183 of variable capacitors. the fixed capacitors cost $59 per kw, and the variable capacitors will cost $65 per kw. the consultant charges 21% of the equipment costs to install the capacitors. because this project will reduce the demand for the electric utility, they are prepared to provide a one-time rebate of $42 per kw of reduced demand. what is the simple payback period for this project (in years)?
