+//Variable declaration:
+T1 = 1800 //Hot gas temperature ( F)
+T2 = 500 //Cool gas temperature ( F)
+//From steam tables:
+Tw = 312 //Boiling point of water at 80 psia ( F)
+m1 = 120000 //Mass flow rate of flue gas (lb/h)
+D = 2/12 //Inside diameter of tube (ft)
+cp = 0.26 //Average heat capacity of flue gas (Btu/lb. F)
+
+//Calculation:
+DT = (T1-Tw)/(T2-Tw) //Temperature difference ratio
+Tav = (T1+T2)/2 //Average gas temperature ( F)
+//From figure 18.4:
+x = 150 //Gas mass flow rate per tube (m/N) (lb/h)
+N = m1/x //Number of tubes
+L = 21.5 //Length of tubes (ft)
+A = N*L*D //Total heat transfer area (ft^2)
+Q = m1*cp*(T1-T2) //Heat duty (Btu/h)
+//From steam tables (Appendix):
+hs = 1183.1 //Steam enthalpy at 80 psia (Btu/lb)
+hw = 168.1 //Water enthalpy at 200 F (Btu/lb)
+m2 = Q/(hs-hw) //Mass flow rate of water (lb/h)
+m2 = round(m2*10**-4)/10**-4
