In counter flow heat exchangers

In counter flow heat exchangers Correct Answer Both the fluids at inlet are in their hottest state

A counter-flow heat exchanger is one in which the direction of the flow of one of the working fluids is opposite to the direction to the flow of the other fluid. In a parallel flow exchanger, both fluids in the heat exchanger flow in the same direction.
