Question: A pipe ( k = 5 9 W m K with an inner diameter of 3 . 7 5 cm and wall thickness of 0

A pipe (k=59WmK with an inner diameter of 3.75 cm and wall thickness of 0.318 cm is externally heated by saturated vapour of temperature 180C. The water flows through the pipe with a velocity of 1.22ms. Calculate the length of the pipe, required to heat water from 30C ta.90C. Assume the heat transfer coefficients are to be 11.3kWm2K. and 5.69kWm2K on the vapour side and inner side respectively. The overall heat transfer coefficient based on the inner surface is 3529.4Wm2K. Draw the length Vs. Temperature curve and state the assumptions for the analysis.
