Answer

a) $\dot{Q}=1958\ Btu/s$ b) $\mathcal{V}=5.02\ ft/s$

Work Step by Step

From the energy balance in the steam: $\dot{m}h_1=\dot{m}h_2+\dot{Q}$ $\dot{Q}=\dot{m}\Delta h_v$ Given $\dot{m}=6800\ lbm/h,\ \Delta h_v=1036.7\ Btu/lbm$ $\dot{Q}=1958\ Btu/s$ From the energy balance in the water: $\dot{Q}+\dot{m}h_1=\dot{m}h_2$ $\dot{Q}=\dot{m}c_p\Delta T$ $\dot{Q}=\rho \frac{\pi D^2}4 \mathcal{V}c_p\Delta T$ Given $\rho=62.1\ lbm/ft³,\ D=1\ in,\ c_p=1.00\ Btu/lbm.°F,\ \Delta T=8°F$ $\mathcal{V}=5.02\ ft/s$
