Air flows through a pipe with the dimensions below. Assuming the pipe outside temperature (i.e the ground temperature) is 13C (55F), the inlet temperature is -2C and the desired outlet temperature is 10C, calculate the mass flow rate of the air. The heat capacity of air is 1.006 kJ/kg K and the convective heat transfer coefficient is 100 W/m2 K for forced air. Length is 5m and Diameter of the pipe is 0.1m Diameter of the pipe is 0.1m and length is 5m.
