Question
2, The internal diameter of a boiler generating tute is 4in. and
the wall thickness is 0.375 in. In operation the external surrace
film temperature is 26 Btu/hr . ft².°F, the internal film
coefficient is 1700 Btu/hr.ft².°F and a 0.375 in. thickness
scale having a conductivity of 0.6 Btu/hr.ft. °F is deposited on
the inner surface of the tube. The metal conductivity is 26
Btu/hr.ft. °F, the furnace gas temperature is 2100 °F and the
temperature of the water is 500 °F, calculate (a) the overall
coefficient of heat transfer for the clean tube, (b) the overall
heat transfer coefficient including the effect of the scale, (c) the
external tube surface temperature before and after the scale
