Question: Toluene ( Heat transfer coefficient { : = 3 0 0 0 W m 2 C ) is being condensed at 1 0 0 C

Toluene (Heat transfer coefficient {:=3000Wm2C) is being condensed at 100C on the outer surface
of a copper condenser tube of inner dia. 1.5 cm and outer dia. 2 cm by passing cooling water (Heat
transfer coefficient =1000Wm2C) at an average temperature of 30C. Estimate the tube wall
temperature assuming negligible resistance of the tube wall.
(A)96C
(B)110C
(C)86C
(D)100C
Toluene ( Heat transfer coefficient { : = 3 0 0 0
