A heat exchanger is required, which will be able to handle 0.0567 m³/s of water at 25 °C flowing through a smooth horizontal pipe with an equivalent'length of 122 m. The total pressure drop is 103,000 Pa. What size pipe is required for this application? Assume that the pipe is isolated from the environment. Do not ignore friction losses. Hint: This is a trial and error problem.
