Question

A concentric tube heat exchanger for cooling lubricating oil consists of a thin-walled inner tube of 25 mm diameter carrying water and an outer tube of 45 mm diameter carrying the oil. The exchanger operates in countercurrent flow with an overall heat transfer coefficient of 55 W/m2 K and the tabulated average properties given below. Mass flow rates of oil and water are both 0.1 kg/s, oil enters the exchanger at 100°C, and water enters the exchanger at 30°C. (a) If the outlet temperature of the oil is 50°C, determine the total rate of heat transfer and the outlet temperature of the water. (b) Determine the length required for the heat exchanger.

**Oil inlet temp is 100 C, oil outlet temp is 50C, water inlet is 30C. Mass flow rates of both water and oil are 0.1 kg/s**

WaterOil 800 Cp (J/kg K) | 4200 | 1900 1*10-5 k (W/mK) 0.64 0.134 Property p (kg/m3)1000 v (ms) 7 Pr 4.7 140
