Question: Compute the average heat transfer coefficient hc for 10?C water flowing at 4 m/s in a long, 2.5-cm-ID pipe (surface temperature 40?C) by three different

Compute the average heat transfer coefficient hc for 10?C water flowing at 4 m/s in a long, 2.5-cm-ID pipe (surface temperature 40?C) by three different equations and compare your results. Also determine the pressure drop per meter length of pipe.GIVENWater flowing through a pipeWater temperature (Tb) = 10?CWater velocity (V) = 4 m/sInside diameter of pipe (D) = 2.5 cm = 0.025 mPipe surface temperature (Ts) = 40?CASSUMPTIONSSteady stateUniform and constant wall surface temperaturePipe wall is smoothFully developed flow (L/D >60)
