Water is passed through a 3 cm internal diameter, 8 m long tube is heated
from 15 °C to 75°C . The tube is equipped with an electric resistance heater,
which provides uniform heating throughout the surface of the tube. The
outer surface of the heater is well insulated, so that in steady operation all
the heat generated in the heater is transferred to the water in the tube. If
the system is to provide hot water at a rate of 8 L/min, determine the power
rating of the resistance heater. Also, estimate the inner surface
temperature of the pipe at the exit.

A student living in a 3-m X 4-m X 4-m dormitory room turns on her 100-W fan before she leaves the room on a summer day, hoping that the room will be cooler when she comes back in the evening. Assuming all the doors and heat trans windows are tightly closed and disregarding any heat fer let through the walls and the windows, determine the temperature in the room when she comes back 8 h later. Use specific heat values at room temperature, and assume room to be at 100 kPa and 20°C in the morning she leaves.
