Heat-exchanger characteristics:
Simple counter flow
U = 250 Btu/hr-ft/- OF
A =-i,200 ft2
Pressure drop on hydraulic fluid is in Fig. P5-7(b)

Using the information given:
(a) Develop the equations required to simulate the system if the exit temperature T; is a required output of the simulation’ process.
(b) Develop a simulation program.
(c) Find the steady-state operation point for a total flow rate of 1,000 gpm and compute the outlet temperature for the system.
(d) What would the exit temperature be if the pump were removed from the system?
