Calculate the rate of overall heat transfer coefficient for the tube heat exchanger with inner and outer heat transfer coefficient of 670 W/m2 -K and 1880 W/m2 -K, respectively. Thermal conductivity of the tube wall is 27 W/m-K. The diameter and the thickness of the tube are 4 cm and 1.5 mm, respectively. Then, calculate the rate of heat transfer for the tube heat
Heat Exchangers
Heat exchangers are the types of equipment that are primarily employed to transfer the thermal energy from one fluid to another, provided that one of the fluids should be at a higher thermal energy content than the other fluid.
Heat Exchanger
The heat exchanger is a combination of two words ''Heat'' and ''Exchanger''. It is a mechanical device that is used to exchange heat energy between two fluids.
Calculate the rate of overall heat transfer coefficient for the tube heat exchanger with
inner and outer heat transfer coefficient of 670 W/m2
-K and 1880 W/m2
-K, respectively.
Thermal conductivity of the tube wall is 27 W/m-K. The diameter and the thickness of the
tube are 4 cm and 1.5 mm, respectively.
Then, calculate the rate of heat transfer for the tube heat
exchanger per meter length if the temperatures of inner and outer surfaces are 100°C
and 52°C, respectively.
