Design a hydrocooling unit that can cool fruits andvegetables from 30 to 5°C at a rate of 20,000 kg/h under thefollowing conditions:The unit will be of flood type, which will cool the productsas they are conveyed into the channel filled with water. Theproducts will be dropped into the channel filled with water atone end and be picked up at the other end. The channel canbe as wide as 3 m and as high as 90 cm. The water is to becirculated and cooled by the evaporator section of a refrigerationsystem. The refrigerant temperature inside the coils is tobe 22°C, and the water temperature is not to drop below 1°Cand not to exceed 6°C.Assuming reasonable values for the average product density,specific heat, and porosity (the fraction of air volume ina box), recommend reasonable values for (a) the water velocitythrough the channel and (b) the refrigeration capacity ofthe refrigeration system.
An electric resistance heater is embedded in a long cylinder ofdiameter 30mm. When water with a temperature of 25 C and velocityof 1m/s flows crosswise over the cylinder, the power per unit lengthrequired to maintain the surface at a uniform temperature of 90 C is28kW/m. When air, also at 25 C, but with a velocity of 10m/s isflowing, the power per unit length required to maintain the samesurface temperature is 400W/m. Calculate and compare the convectioncoefficients for the flows of water and air.
The operations management of the industrial plant where you work asks you to determine the length of a 2.0 ?? diameter pipe that will be used to heat water from an inlet temperature of 20.0°C to an outlet temperature of 60.0 °C. . The operational flow of water in the pipe is to be 0.6 m/s, and the surface temperature of the wall is to be kept constant at 90.0°C by condensing steam.For the development of this task, you must obtain the properties of water at the average temperature of the fluid.To determine the forced convection heat transfer coefficient use the correlation:?? = 0.023??^0.8??^0.4
