In a large student house in Sheffield, cold water is supplied by the mains water supply at a pressure of 2 bar, gauge, and at a temperature 10°C. A wash basin cold tap is located 3 meters above the mains supply, connected to the mains pipe with a copper pipe of internal diameter 15 mm and length 12 meters. When the tap is opened the flow rate of water out of the tap is 24 litres per minute, creating a Fanning friction factor in the pipe of 0.008. a) Calculate the Reynolds number of the water in the pipe and determine if it is laminar or turbulent.

You are designing a piping system to facilitate the transfer of water from one industrialprocess to the next. You need the water to condense from saturated vapor to saturatedliquid at a constant 1000 kPa as it flows through the piping system. The pipe is to be madeof plain carbon steel with thermal conductivity ? = 60 W m-K⁄ and inner and outer radii?? = 5 cm and ?? = 7 cm, respectively. The thermodynamic property table at the end of thisproblem will be helpful throughout your analysis.a) If the convection coefficient between the steam and inner wall of the pipe is “verylarge”, what is the temperature of the inner pipe wall along its entire length?(Hint: Isobaric phase change is also iso___?)b) The fluid surrounding the pipe has temperature ?∞ = 30°C and the convectioncoefficient from the pipe to this fluid is ℎ = 100 W/m2⋅K. What is the heat transferrate out of the pipe, per unit meter of pipe? You may neglect radiation effects. Usea thermal resistance network in your analysis.c) The…
