1-20\ Pro Liquid ethanol is a flammable fluid and can release vapors that form explosive mixtures at temperatures above its flash point at

16.6\\\\deg C

. In a chemical plant, liquid ethanol

(c_(r)

is being transported in a pipe with an inside diameter of

5cm

. The pipe is located in a hot area with the presence of an ignition source, where an estimated

20kW

of heat is added to the ethanol. Your task as an engineer is to design a pumping system to transport the ethanol safely and to prevent fire hazard. If the inlet temperature of the ethanol is

10\\\\deg C

, determine the volume flow rate that is necessary to keep the temperature of the ethanol in the pipe below its flash point.\ Liquid ethanol-\
