Question

In the last step of a food supplement production, the food supplement is heated from 25C to 75C while passing through a 12.7 mm diameter thin-walled tube at a speed of 0.2 m / s. Proper heating is provided by an electric resistance heating system wrapped on the outer surface of the pipe. What is the heat flux in a pipe with a length of 10 m? The density of the fluid is given as 1000 kg / cubic meter , heat capacity 4000 J / kg-K, density 2x10^-3 kg / m-s, heat transfer coefficient 0.8 W / m-K and Prandtl number 10.
