Water is pumped through a heat exchanger consisting of tubes 8 mm in diameter and 6 m

Question:

Water is pumped through a heat exchanger consisting of tubes 8 mm in diameter and 6 m long. The velocity in each tube is 12 cm/s. The water temperature increases from 20°C at the entrance to 30°C at the exit. Calculate the pressure difference across the heat exchanger, neglecting entrance losses but accounting for the effect of temperature change by using properties at average temperatures.
