- Air (pressure 1 atm) enters a circular pipe 5 cm in diameter at 20 °C with an average speed of 5 m/s. The tube wall is maintained at a constant surface temperature of 160°C, and the mean outlet temperature is 80°C. Estimate the length of the tube. Mainly, I also need the solution from concepts of how the heat flow behaves in the system, it can be with a diagram.arrow_forwardEngine oil flows through a 25-mm-diameter tube at a rate of 0.5 kg/s. The oil enters the tube at a temperature of 25°C, while the tube surface temperature is maintained at 100°C. (a) Determine the oil outlet temperature for a 5-m and for a 100-m long tube. For each case, compare the log mean temperature difference to the arithmetic mean temperature difference.arrow_forwardAir with an average temperature of 25oC flows inside a tube arrangement consisting 10 rows of tubes. Each tube has an outer diameter of 1.9 cm. The air enters the tube arrangement inlet at 2 m/s velocity. Calculate the heat transfer coefficient, coefficient of friction, and pressure drop inside the tube arrangement if: a) Using staggered tube arrangement with b) Using aligned tube arrangement witharrow_forward
- Air at atmospheric pressure and 25oC is heated in a tube with an ID of 25 mm. The tube wall is maintained at a temperature of 200oC.

For a temperature = 90°C, determine: 1- the thickness of the hydrodynamic boundary layer at the end of the plate2- the thickness of the thermal boundary layer at the end of the plate3- the local and average heat transfer coefficient at the end of the plate4- the total heat flux transferred from the heated surface.arrow_forward

Assuming that the flow is fully developed, calculate a) the average temperature of the air at the outlet plane, b) the amount of heat transfer. 2-) Calculate the rate at which the average friction coefficient, friction force and heat transfer rate will change if the free flow rate of the turbulent air flowing parallel to the plate over a smooth plate is doubled.
