Answer

a) $T_2=775.1\ K$ b) $\dot{m}_g=14.9\ kg/s$

Work Step by Step

Enthalpies: Air: Inlet ($T_1=550\ K$): $h_1= 555.74\ kJ/kg$ Gases: Inlet ($T_3=800\ K$): $h_3= 821.95\ kJ/kg$, Outlet ($T_4=600\ K$): $h_4= 607.02\ kJ/kg$ For air: $\dot{Q}+\dot{m}_ah_1=\dot{m}_ah_2$ $\dot{Q}=3200\ kJ/s,\ \dot{m}_a=800\ kg/min$ $h_2=794.71\ kJ/kg \rightarrow T_2=775.1\ K$ For the gases: $\dot{m}_gh_3=\dot{m}_gh_4+\dot{Q}$ $\dot{m}_g=14.9\ kg/s$
