Dear Students, the Final Exam sols are posted at Stellar. Happy Holidays to you all.

Part 2 of the subject problem a sks for the exit temperature of the coolant in the hot channel. The answer given in the book is above the saturation temperature, which does not make sense. The coolant does reach saturation and partially boils (as shown also in Part 3), so the exit temperature is the saturation temperature.

The syllabus reports Pset 9 to be due on 12/2, when in fact it is due on Thursday (12/4), like all other psets. Sorry for the late notice. Hopefully you can use the extra time.
