Question

answer shown is 100% correct

Rate of heat transfer for a fluid varies with the Reynolds number and the regime of the flow (i.e., laminar
or turbulent). It turns out, under a given condition the average convection coefficient (between the surface
of the tube and the fluid) for a flow in a 10-m long tube can be calculated from the equation below.
hD _
=
3.66 +0.83Re¹/³,
0.025 Re¹/5,
if flow is laminar
if flow is turbulent
Here D is the diameter of the tube, and k is the conductivity of the fluid. Consider the diameter of the
tube to be 0.2 m. The fluid is air at a temperature of 10°C and velocity of 1 cm/s. The temperature of
the surface is 20°C. What is the rate of heat transfer to the fluid?
61.08 W

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given: 

L = 10 m

h-Dk=3.66+0.83Re1/3  if flow is laminar.

h-Dk=0.025Re4/5 if flow is turbulent. 

D = 0.2 m

T= 10oC

Ts= 20oC

U=1 cm/s= 0.01 m/s
