The performance of gas turbine engines may beimproved by increasing the tolerance of the turbineblades to hot gases emerging from the combustor. Oneapproach to achieving high operating temperaturesinvolves application of a thermal barrier coating (TBC) to the exterior surface of a blade, while passingcooling air through the blade. Typically, the blade ismade from a high-temperature superalloy, such asInconel

What length of tube is required?arrow_forwardDetermine the rate of heat transfer per meter length to a light oil flowing through a 2.5-cm-ID, 60-cm-long copper tube at a velocity of 0.03 m/s. The oil enters the tube at 16C, and the tube is heated by steam condensing on its outer surface at atmospheric pressure with a heat transfer coefficient of 11.3 kW/m K.
