Question 10(24 points)
Combustion air at 20C in a manufacturing facility is preheated by passing it over a tube bank that is maintained at 100. The tubes are 1 m long. 1.6 cm in diameter, and are arranged in-line with SL-ST=6cm. Air enters the tube bank at a mean velocity of 7.2ms. There are 20 rows in the flow direction with 10 tubes in each row. The properties of air at mean temperature and at other key points are as below:
