8-135 Steam is to be condensed in the condenser of a steam power plant at a temperature of 60°C with cooling water from a nearby lake that enters the tubes of the condenser at 15°C at a rate of 140 kg/s and leaves at 25°C. Assuming the condenser to be perfectly insulated, determine a) the rate of condensation of the steam and b) the rate of exergy destruction in the condenser. | |
