Specific heat of cold fluid Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Specific heat of cold fluid?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

cc = (ϵ \cdot \frac{C min}{mc}) \cdot (\frac{1}{\frac{t2 - t1}{T1 - t1}})

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

cc = (8 \cdot \frac{30}{500kg/s}) \cdot (\frac{1}{\frac{25K - 10K}{60K - 10K}})

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

cc = (8 \cdot \frac{30}{500}) \cdot (\frac{1}{\frac{25 - 10}{60 - 10}})

LAST Step Evaluate

∴

cc = 1.6J/(kg*K)
