Heat transfer by HX:
If the inlet temperatures, both flow rates and specific heat values, the surface area and the overall heat transfer are known, we can calculate the heat transfer between both fluids.

NTU Method for Heat Exchangers:
The NTU Method is used to evaluate heat exchangers for known inlet temperatures of the fluids and a known geometry of the heat exchanger (outlet temperatures unknown).
1) Calculate overall thermal resistance from known geometry. 2) Calculate NTU from overall thermal resistance. 3) Calculate effectiveness from NTU. 4) Calculate total heat transfer q from effectiveness and inlet temperatures. 5) Calculate outlet temperatures from known inlet temperatures and total heat transfer q.

Phase Change in Heat Exchanger:
Condensing vapor:
Phase change leads to constant temperature on hot side, flow direction of hot side is irrelevant.
