Question: QUESTION 2 ( 1 2 MARKS ) For laminar flow in a pipe the convection heat transfer coefficient can be calculated by: = 3 .

QUESTION 2(12 MARKS)
For laminar flow in a pipe the convection heat transfer coefficient can be
calculated by:
=3.66+0.668(DL)*Re*Pr*Gr0.31+0.04(DL)Re*Pr
For turbulent flow the following expression is true:
=0.023Re0.8Pr0.3Gr0.16. If the Re>2600, the flow is turbulent.
A pipe internal diameter 50 mm is 10 m long. It conveys air at a rate of
0.2m3s with the following properties:
=0.543(kg)m3;CP=1029.5(J)(kg)*K;=2.6710-5(kg)(m)*(s);k=0.0404(W)(m)*(K)
Calculate:
a) Convection heat transfer coefficient if =1.2510-2K-1.
b) Heat loss by convection if the inside surface temperature of the pipe
is 350 K and the air in the pipe is at 680 K .
