Consider a flow of oil at 20oC in a 30 cm diameter pipeline at an average velocity of 2 m/s. A 100 m long section of the horizontal pipeline passes through icy waters of a lake at 0oC. Measurements indicate that the surface temperature of the pipe is very nearly 0oC. Disregarding the thermal resistance of the pipe material, a) Determine the temperature of the oil when the pipe leaves the lake (Thb). b) Calculate the rate of heat transfer from the oil.
