A liquid is heated from 20 to 70 oC as it flows at 0.025 kg/s through a steel tube of 10 mm and 12m long. A uniform heat flux is maintained on the tube surface. Using the following liquid properties ρ = 1000 kg/m3, Cp = 4100 J/kg.K, k = 0.45 W/m.K, Pr = 10, μ = 2x10-3 kg/s.m. Calculate the average heat flux on the tube.

Question

A liquid is heated from 20 to 70 oC as it flows at 0.025 kg/s through a steel tube of 10 mm and 12m long. A uniform heat flux is maintained on the tube surface. Using the following liquid properties ρ = 1000 kg/m3, Cp = 4100 J/kg.K, k = 0.45 W/m.K, Pr = 10, μ = 2x10-3 kg/s.m.

  1. Calculate the average heat flux on the tube. 
  2. Calculate the heat transfer coefficient at end of tube 
  3. Calculate the surface temperature at exit and the heat transfer coefficient for first 1m of pipe?
