How can a heat exchanger be designed for a specific industrial process involving the heating and cooling of a liquid stream with a flow rate of 500L/min and a specific heat capacity of 4.2 kJ/kg K? The temperature of the hot and cold streams are 120°C and 25°C respectively, and the process requires a heat transfer rate of at least 200 kW. What should be the surface area and overall heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger to meet the process requirements?

Design a heat exchanger for a chemical process that requires heating of 50 kg/hr of water from 25°C to 80°C using steam as the heating medium. The available steam is at a pressure of 1.5 MPa and a temperature of 300°C. The overall heat transfer coefficient between the water and the steam is 600 W/m2K. The heat exchanger should be designed to accommodate a temperature drop of 5°C for both the water and the steam. Determine the required surface area of the heat exchanger and the mass flow rate of steam required to meet the process requirements.
