Required information
Problem 07.115- DEPENDENT MULTI-PART PROBLEM - ASSIGN ALL PARTS.
Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.8-
m -long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20C. Air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at
0C and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 7ms. The tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of SL
=ST=1.5cm. There are 25 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. Assume the mean temperature as -5C
and the properties of air at this temperature and 1 atm are (Table A-15)k=0.02326Wm*K,cp=1.006kJkg*K,=1.317
kgm3,Pr=0.7375,=1.70510-5kgm*s, and Prs=Pr@Ts=-20C=0.7408. Also, the density of air at the inlet
temperature of 0C(for use in the mass flow rate calculation at the inlet) is i=1.292kgm3.
