Question: Step 1 4 3 . 5 t o n d of process water is to be cooled from T 1 = 3 5 4 .

Step 1
43.5tond of process water is to be cooled from T1=354.1K to T2=330.2K using cooling tower water which is available at t1=297.5K. You are going to use 1inch and 1.5inch steel tubes in your design. Determine the exiting temperature of the cooling water, t2, in K as accurately as possible.
Step 2
Determine the required flow rate of cooling water in ton.d-1 to an accuracy of at least three decimal places.
Hints:
Use linear interpolation to obtain the heat capacities at the average temperatures of the streams.
Take care of the units.
Re-calculate t2 as you did for step one.
Step 3?
You are using 25mm outside diameter, and 38mm outside diameter carbon steel tubes, both with wall thickness of 2mm in your design.
Determine the Reynold's number in the inner tube (containing the process water) to an accuracy of at least zero decimal places.
