Ethylene glycol (use cp=2474 J/kg K) and water (use cp=4186 J/kg K) at 60oC and 10oC, respectively, enter a shell-and-tube (one shell and 2 tube passes) heat exchanger for which the total heat transfer area is 15m2.  With ethylene glycol and water flow rates of 2 and 5kg/s respectively, the overall heat transfer coefficient is 800 W/m2K. Determine the rate of heat transfer and the fluid outlet temperatures.
