Question:
The tube in a heat exchanger has a 2-in inner diameter and a 3-in outer diameter. The thermal conductivity of the tube material is 0.5 Btu/h·ft·°F, while the inner surface heat transfer coefficient is 50 Btu/h·ft2·°F and the outer surface heat transfer coefficient is 10 Btu/h·ft2·°F. Determine the overall heat transfer coefficients based on the outer and inner surfaces.
