2. (20 marks) The fully-developed, laminar fluid flow through a circular pipe is considered to be one dimensional with a velocity profile given by u(r) = Umax(1 - 52/R2), where R is the radius of the pipe, r is the radial distance from the center of the pipe, and Umax is the maximum flow velocity at the center of the pipe. a) Derive a relation for the drag force applied by the fluid on a section of the pipe of...
Liquid water flows in an ASTM B75 copper tube at a mass flow rate of 3.6 g/s. The water enters the tube at 40°C, and the tube surface is subjected to a constant heat flux at a rate of 1.8 kW. The tube is circular with an inner diameter of 25 mm and a length of 3 m. The maximum use temperature for ASTM B75 copper tube is 204°C. Would the surface temperature of the tube exceed the maximum use...
Problem 3: (35pts) Atmospheric air enters the heated section of a circular tube at a flow rate of 0.005 kg/s and a temperature of 30°C. The tube is of diameter D =60mm, and fully developed conditions with h = 30W/m2K exist over the entire length of L-4m. Take cp-1015 /kg.K 2 (a) (10pts) For the case of uniform surface heat flux at q"-1000W/m, determine the total heat transfer rate q and the mean temperature of the air leaving the tube...
1. 1.08x106 grams/h of a superheated fluid flows through a pipe in a power plant. The pipe is 1000 cm long, has an inner diameter of 0.05m and a wall thickness of 0.6 cm. The pipe has a thermal conductivity of 0.0017 kW/mK, and the inner pipe surface is at a uniform temperature of 393K.

QUESTION 5 A 12-m-long and 11-mm-inner-diameter pipe made of commercial steel is used to heat a liquid in an industrial process. The liquid enters the pipe with T; = 20°C, V=0.8 m/s. A uniform heat flux is maintained by an electric resistance heater wrapped around the outer surface of the pipe, so that the fluid exits at 60°C. Assuming fully developed flow and taking the average fluid properties to be p = 992.1 kg/m2, k = 0.631 W/m-°C, Cp =...
