Question: Consider a concentric tube annulus for which the inner and outer diameters are 25 and 50 mm. Water enters the annular region at 0.04 kg/s
Consider a concentric tube annulus for which the inner and outer diameters are 25 and 50 mm. Water enters the annular region at 0.04 kg/s and 25°C. If the inner tube wall is heated electrically at a rate (per unit length) of q' = 4000 W/m, while the outer tube wall is insulated, how long must the tubes be for the water to achieve an outlet temperature of 85°C? What is the inner tube surface temperature at the outlet, where fully developed conditions may be assumed?
