Question
Consider a double-rectangular flow channel composed of an outer rectangular channel and an
inner rectangular channel. The width and height (or gap) of the inner rectangular channel are
60 and 20 mm, respectively, whereas the width and height of the outer rectangular channel are
100 and 40 mm, respectively. Oil and water, respectively, flow through the inner and outer
rectangular channels, and the oil and water flow direction is the same. The flow rates of the oil
and water are 0.2 and 0.3 kg/s, respectively. The important information for the thermal analysis
is given below. The wall thermal resistance is 0.01 (m²-K)/W. If the flow is turbulent, the
Dittus-Boelter correlation should be used for estimating the heat transfer coefficient. If the flow
is laminar, the Nusselt numbers for water and oil are given as 4.01 and 5.63, respectively. The
oil and water enter at temperatures of 100 and 30 °C, respectively.
Oil: Specific heat capacity=2131 J/(kg K), Viscosity-3.25×102 N-s/m², Thermal
conductivity 0.138 W/(m K), Prandtl number-546
Water: Specific heat capacity=4178 J/(kg-K), Viscosity-725x10-6 N-s/m², Thermal

2. Negligible kinetic and potential changes.
3. Constant properties.
4. Fully developed conditions for the water and oil.

(NUD-0.023 Rep08 Pr") used for calculating the heat transfer from oil to wall?
4-3) How long must the tube be made if the outlet temperature of the oil is to be 70 °C? The
answer should be given in the unit of m.
4-4) When the outlet temperature of the oil is set at 60 °C (other conditions are the same), what
is the outlet temperature of the water? The answer should be given in the unit of °C.
