Please calculate the heat transfer rate (Btu/hr) from a horizontal pipe flow of water at 120 F placed in ambient air at 70 F. The heat transfer coefficient from natural convection on the outside surface is 0.65 Btu/hr-ft²-F. The heat transfer coefficient from forced convection due to the internal turbulent flow is 399 Btu/hr-ft2-F. The pipe material is steel, and the outside diameter is 34 mm with a wall thickness of 2 mm. The pipe is 2 ft long.

Heat transfer
Please calculate the heat transfer rate (Btu/hr) from a horizontal pipe flow of water at 120 F
placed in ambient air at 70 F. The heat transfer coefficient from natural convection on the
outside surface is 0.65 Btu/hr-ft2-F. The heat transfer coefficient from forced convection due to
the internal turbulent flow is 399 Btu/hr-ft²-F. The pipe material is steel, and the outside
diameter is 34 mm with a wall thickness of 2 mm. The pipe is 2 ft long.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given

                   Temperature, T1 = 120oF

                                         T2 = 70oF

Heat transfer coefficient, h1 = 0.65 Btu/hr.ft2.F

                                        h2 = 399 Btu/hr.ft2.F

                             Length, L = 2 ft

                         Diameter, d = 34 mm

                         Thickness, t = 2 mm = 0.006 ft
