1. Oil that has a density of 880 kg/m flows under a head of 30 m. The pipe that the oil flows through is 3000 m long and 0.35 m in diameter. Due to the cooling along the span of the pipe the viscosity changes, this may be taken as 0.57 kg/m-s over the first 1500 m and 1.14 kg/m-s over the second 1500 m. Confirm that laminar flow conditions exist and calculate the flow in dm/s. Neglect entry and exit losses. Answer 37.185 dm/s

3.40 WP To maximize production and minimize pumping costs, crude oil is heated to reduce its viscosity during transportation from a production field. (a) Consider a pipe-in-pipe configuration consisting of concentric steel tubes with an intervening insulating material. The inner tube is used to transport warm crude oil through cold ocean water. The inner steel pipe (ks = 35 W/m · K) has an inside diameter of Di1 = 150 mm and wall thickness t; = 10 mm while the outer steel pipe has an inside diameter of Di.2 = 250 mm and wall thickness to = t;.

Laminar flow normally persists on a smooth flat plate until the critical Reynolds number value is reached. However, the flow can be brought to a turbulent state by adding a roughness to the front edge of the plate. For a particular situation, experimental results show that the local heat transfer coefficients for laminar and turbulent conditions are: Hlam (x) = 1,74.x^-0,5Hturb (x)= 3,98.x^-0,2 Calculate the average heat transfer coefficients for laminar and turbulent conditions for plates of length L = 0.1 m and 1.0 m.
