Engine oil flows through a 50 mm diameter tube at an average temperature of 147°C. The flow velocity is 80 cm/s. Calculate the average heat transfer coefficient if the tube wall is maintained at a temperature of 200°C and it is 2 m long. Hint: Area can be assumed to be equal to the vertical projectiion of the tube , i.e. LD. Ans.: h = 377.36 W/m2.K . Draw an illustration.    Note: use the formula on the picture

Properties of Fluids

The term fluid represents a type of substance that can easily change its shape under any external pressure/force and can flow. Fluids can acquire any shape in which it is stored and can resist normal stresses but cannot resist shear stress in rest condition. Whenever external shear stress is applied to fluids, it starts to flow. The fluids may be liquid or gas. Example- water, air, etc.
