In a counter-current-flow tubular heat exchanger, a liquid food (milk),flowing in the inner pipe, is heated from 20 to 40°C. In theouter pipe the heating medium (water) cools from 90 to50°C. The overall heat-transfer coefficient based on the insidediameter is 2000 W/(m^2-°C). The inside diameter is 5 cm andlength of the heat exchanger is 10 m. The average specific heatof water is 4.181 kJ/(kg-°C). Calculate the mass flow rate ofwater in the outer pipe. Compare the amount of milk being heated to concurrent design.
