The gauge pressure indicated by a manometer fitted to the wall of the vessel is $0.5$ bar. If the gas constant of air is $R=287 \: J/kg.K$ and the atmospheric pressure is $1$ bar, the mass of air (in $kg$) in the vessel is $1.67$ $3.33$ $5.00$ $6.66$

A balanced counterflow heat exchanger has a surface area of $20$ $m^2$ and overall heat transfer coefficient of $20$ $W$/$m^2$-$K$. Air ($C_p$=$1000$ $J$/$kg$-$K$) entering at $0.4$ $kg/s$ and $280$ $K$ is to be preheated by the air leaving the system at $0.4$ $kg/s$ and $300$ $K$. The outlet temperature (in $K$) of the preheated air is $290$ $300$ $320$ $350$
