An oil has 0.62 inch steel tube, through which flows an oil. The properties of oil are as follows; μ = 0.034 lbs/ft-sec, μb = 0.044 lbs/ft-sec, μw = 0.004 lbs/ft-sec, and specific gravity at 60°F is 0.899. The oil neters at a temperature of t1 = 60°F and flows with an average velocity of 4 ft/sec. The inside surface area is 0.1613 ft2 per foot length, and the inside sectional area is 0.3019 in2. The length of one pass of the tube is 10 feet. Considering steam at 215°F surround the tubes. Assume that the inside surface temperature of the pipe is 210°F and a bulk temperature of 72°F. If the specific heat of oil is 0.5 btu/lbs-°F and its conductivity k = 0.08 Btu-ft/hr-°F-ft2, what is the temperature at the end of 10 feet pass.
