Answer

$\dot{Q}=4368.2\ kW$

Work Step by Step

The mass flowrate of steel is given by: $\dot{m}=\rho A_1\mathcal{V}_1$ Since $\rho=7854\ kg/m³,\ A_1=(2\times0.005)m²,\ \mathcal{V}_1=10\ m/min$: $\dot{m}=13.09\ kg/s$ Energy balance for the steel: $\dot{m}h_1=\dot{m}h_2+\dot{Q}$ $\dot{Q}=\dot{m}c_p(T_1-T_2)$ With $c_p=0.434\ kJ/kg.K,\ T_1=820°C,\ T_2=51.1°C$ $\dot{Q}=4368.2\ kW$
