A one shell pass, one tube-pass heat exchanger, has counter flow configuration between the shell side and tube side fluids. The total number of tubes within the heat exchanger is $$10$$ and the tube dimensions are $$ID=10$$ $$mm,$$ $$OD=12$$ $$mm$$ and length $$=1m.$$ saturated dry steam enters the shell side at a flow rate of $$2$$ $$kg/s$$ and the temp of $${100^ \circ }C.$$ In the tube side, cold water enters at a flow rate of $$10$$ $$kg/s$$ with an inlet temp of $${25^ \circ }C.$$ The $$OHTC$$ based on the outer surface area of the tubes is $$50$$ $$W/{m^2}K.$$ The specific heat of water is $$4.18$$ $$kJ/kg$$-$$K$$ and the latent heat of steam is $$2500$$ $$kJ/kg.$$ What is the condition of the steam at the exit.
