Fresh milk at 100C is to be pasteurised at 800C in a counter-current flow heat exchanger. The milk flows into the exchanger at a volumetric rate of 1.5 x10-3 m3s-1. Hot water at 900C, flowing at 1.4 x10-3 m3 s-1 is used as the source of heat. (i) Find the rate of heat transfer to bring the cold milk to pasteurisation temperature . The hot milk exiting the exchanger at 800C is to be cooled to 250C. For economic reasons, the pasteurised hot milk will be pre-cooled by using it to is to pre-heat an incoming stream of cold fresh milk (inlet at 100C). This practice is termed heat regeneration. 75% of the heat content of hot milk is used in this way. Both hot and cold streams of milk flow at 1.5x10-3 m3s-1. (ii) Calculate the rate of heat loss by the hot milk to cool to 250C (iii) Determine the exit temperature of pre-heated cold milk (iv) Calculate the extra heat needed to raise the temperature of the pre-heated milk to the pasteurisation temperature of 800C (this extra heat is to be supplied by hot water) (v) Hence, determine the % saving on heat by employing heat regeneration. (vi) What conclusion can you draw from your result from (v)?

Amass of 1.5 kg of air at 120 kpa and 24°c is contained in a gas-tight, frictionless piston-cylinder device. the air is now compressed to a final pressure of 720 kpa. during the process, heat is transferred from the air such that the temperature inside the cylinder remains constant. calculate the boundary work input during this process.

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
