Find the heat-transfer coefficient α if the mean air temperature tf = 100oC.
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.
Air flows inside a tube 60 mm in diameter (d) and 2.1 m long (l) at a velocity w = 5 m/sec. Find the heat-transfer coefficient α if the mean air temperature tf = 100oC.
Note: Write your answer in space provided without the unit (the answer is in kcal/m2-hr-oC, one decimal places)
