Problem 3: In a molten-salt nuclear reactor, radioactive liquid is flowing through a cylindrical pipe of diameter D. Fi...
4. (25 pts) Water is flowing inside a thin wall, smooth pipe of diameter 0.05 m at a mass flowrate of 0.3 kg/s. The water enters the pipe at a mean temperature Tm,i= 80 °C and exits at Tm,o= 80 °C while the pipe surface temperature is maintained at Ts= 20 °C along its entire length. a. Is the flow turbulent or laminar? b. Calculate the average convection heat transfer coefficient inside the tube. c. Calculate the length of the...
A flat-plate solar collector is used to heat atmospheric air flowing through a rectangular channel. The bottom surface of the channel is well insulated, while the top surface is subjected to a uniform heat flux 96,which is due to the net effect of solar radiation absorption and heat exchange between the absorber and cover plates. W Transparent cover plate Absorber plate Rectangular channel Air Tmi, m Beginning with an appropriate differential control volume, obtain an equation that could be used...
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. The temperature drop between the inlet and exit of the pipe is 7K, and the constant pressure specific heat of vapor is 2190 J/kgK. If...
Consider liquid water flowing over a flat plate of length L = 1 m. The water has the following properties: ρ-1000 kg/m3, Cp-4000 J/kgK. 10 3 kg/ ms, k 0.6 W/m . C μ Midway through the plate at x = 0.5 m, you measure a heat flux to the surface of: 05 m 3181 W/m2 You also measure an average heat flux to the surface over the length of the plate of: "4500 W/m2 Knowing the latter, and knowing...
summatize the following info and break them into differeng key points. write them in yojr own words apartus 6.1 Introduction—The design of a successful hot box appa- ratus is influenced by many factors. Before beginning the design of an apparatus meeting this standard, the designer shall review the discussion on the limitations and accuracy, Section 13, discussions of the energy flows in a hot box, Annex A2, the metering box wall loss flow, Annex A3, and flanking loss, Annex...
