To cool a storehouse in the summer without using a conventional air-conditioning system, the owner decided to hire an engineer to design an alternative system that would make use of the water in the nearby lake. The engineer decided to flow air through a thin smooth 10-cm-diameter copper tube that is submerged in the nearby lake. The water in the lake is typically maintained at a constant temperature of 15°C and a convection heat transfer coefficient of 1000 W/m2?K. If air (1 atm) enters the copper tube at a mean temperature of 30°C with an average velocity of 2.5 m/s, determine the necessary copper tube length so that the outlet mean temperature of the air is 20°C.

Water is to be heated from 15°C to 65°C as it flows through a 3-cm-internaldiameter 5-m-long tube . The tube is equipped with an electric resistance heater that provides uniform heating throughout the surface of the tube. The outer surface of the heater is well insulated, so that in steady operation all the heat generated in the heater is transferred to the water in the tube. If the system is to provide hot water at a rate of 10 L/min, determine the power rating of the resistance heater. Also, estimate the inner surface temperature of the tube at the exit.
