Design Problem-

A steam boiler may be thought of as a heat exchanger. The combustion gases may be modeled as a streram of air because their thermodynamic properties are close to those of air. Using this model, consider a boiler that is to convert saturated liquid water at 500 psia to a saturated vapor while maintaining the water pressure constant. Determine the temperature at which the air must enter this unit so that the transfer of the energy from the air to the boiling water is done at the minimum loss.
