Question:

A 15-cm-OD pipe is buried with its centerline 1.25 m below the surface of the ground (k of soil is 0.35 W/(m K)). An oil having a density of 800 kg/m3 and a specific heat of 2.1 kJ/(kg K) flows in the pipe at 5.6 L/s. Assuming a ground surface temperature of 5ºC and a pipe wall temperature of 95ºC, estimate the length of pipe in which the oil temperature decreases by 5.5ºC.
