A flow-through electric water heater has a 22 kW electric heater inside an insulated 2.0-cm-diameter pipe so that water flowing through the pipe will have good thermal contact with the heater. Assume that all the heat energy is transferred to the water. Suppose the inlet water temperature is 12° C and the flow rate is 8.0 L/min (about that of a standard shower head).

Applied Fluid Mechanics

A fluid is a substance that is continuously deformed by the application of shear stress. The rate of deformation of a fluid depends on its viscosity. The fluid tries to flow when it interacts with some other system.

The ice maker inside a refrigerator makes ice cubes at 0.0°C from water that is at 17.2°C when it first enters the ice maker. If this machine is rated at 184 W and has a 2.96 coefficient of performance, what is the maximum amount of ice it can produce in a 24 hour period without any interruption or stoppage? Assume that the ice maker works just like a refrigerator. The specific heat of water is 4184 J/(kg · °C), and the latent heat of fusion of ice is 33.4 ✕ 104 J/kg.
