Water flowing in a long, aluminum lube is to be heated by air flowing perpendicular to the exterior of the tube. The ID of the tube is 1.85 cm, and its OD is 2.3 cm. The mass flow rate of the water through the tube is 0.65kg/s, and the temperature of the water in the lube averages 30C. The free-stream velocity and ambient temperature of the air are 10m/sand120C, respectively.

Calculate the overall heal transfer coefficient for the heal exchanger (a) based on the inner tube area and (b) based on the outer tube area.
A counterflow concentric tube heat exchanger is used to cool the lubricating oil from a large gas turbine engine. The flow rate of cooling water through the inner tube (Di = 25 mm) is 0.2 kg/s, while the flow of oil through the outer annulus (Do = 45 mm) is 0.1 kg/s. The oil and water enter at temperatures of 100°C and 30°C respectively. What is the heat transfer rate, and the overall convective heat transfer coefficient between fluids? Assuming negligible heat loss in the surrounding and negligible tube wall resistance and how long must the tube be made if the required outlet temperature of the oil is 60°C?

A shell and tube heat exchanger is designed as a counter flow type. Water (cp = 4182 J/kg.oC)enters the shell side at 30 oC with a mass flow rate of 12.5 kg/s. A mass flow rate of 19.5 kg/s of engine oil (cp = 1060 J/kg.oC), enters the tube side at 300 oC. Each tube is having an inner diameter of 36 mm and a wall thickness of 2 mm, and a length of 3 m. If the heat exchanger effectiveness is60 %, calculate the following: a) The tube side surface area if the overall heat transfer coefficient is 1586 W/m2. oC,b) The number of tubes used in the heat exchanger,
