Question:

A thick-walled, stainless steel (AISI 316) pipe of inside and outside diameters D; = 20 mm and Do = 40 mm is heated electrically to provide a uniform heat generation rate of q = 10 6 W/m3.

The outer surface of the pipe is insulated, while water flows through the pipe at a rate of in = 0.1 kg/s.

(a) If the water inlet temperature is Tm,i = 20°C and the desired outlet temperature is Tm,o = 40°C, what is the required pipe length?

(b) What are the location and value of the maximum pipe temperature?
