What is the main difference between a copper and a cupronickel coaxial heat exchanger, and where is each used?
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. Estimate the overall heat transfer coefficient for the heat exchanger using appropriate correlations from previous chapters. State all your assumptions.
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?
