6-136E Saturated steam at a saturation pressure of 0.95 psia and thus at a saturation temperature of Tsat = 100F (Table A-
4E) condenses on the outer surfaces of 144 horizontal tubes by circulating cooling water arranged in a 12 12 square array.
The rate of heat transfer to the cooling water and the average velocity of the cooling water are to be determined.
Assumptions 1 Steady operating conditions exist. 2 The tubes are
isothermal. 3 Water is an incompressible substance with constant
properties at room temperature. 4 The changes in kinetic and potential
energies are negligible.
Analysis (a) The rate of heat transfer from the steam to the cooling
water is equal to the heat of vaporization released as the vapor
