Answer

$\dot{Q}=0.945\ kW$

Work Step by Step

The mass flow rate can be given by: $P\dot{V}_1=\dot{m}RT_1$ Given $P=101.325\ kPa,\ R=0.287\ kJ/kg.K,\ T=297 K,\ \dot{V}=150\ m³/h=0.04167\ m³/s$: $\dot{m}=0.0495\ kg/s$ The heat loss: $\dot{Q}=\Delta \dot{H} = \dot{m}c_p(T_2-T_1)$ With $c_p=1.005\ kJ/kg.K,\ T_1=5°C, T_2=24°C$ $\dot{Q}=0.945\ kW$
