As part of an industrial pipe system a 6-meter-long by .5 meter inner diameter copper pipe weighing 200kg holds a lubricating oil in place while is heats from 20 deg C to 55 deg C. At that point, the valve opens and allows to oil to flow through. What is the total heat transfer required? And, what percentage of the heat transferred does the oil and copper each account for? (oil density = .9 kg/L , oil specific heat = 1800 J/kgC)
Heat Exchangers
Heat exchangers are the types of equipment that are primarily employed to transfer the thermal energy from one fluid to another, provided that one of the fluids should be at a higher thermal energy content than the other fluid.
Heat Exchanger
The heat exchanger is a combination of two words ''Heat'' and ''Exchanger''. It is a mechanical device that is used to exchange heat energy between two fluids.
