Required information
Air is to be heated by passing it over a bank of 3-m-long tubes inside which steam is condensing at 100°C. Air approaches
the tube bank in the normal direction at 20°C and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 5.2 m/s. The outer diameter of the tubes is
1.6 cm, and the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of S, = ST= 6 cm. There are 20 rows in
the flow direction with 10 tubes in each row. Assume the air properties at mean temperature of 35°C and 1 atm. The air
properties at the assumed mean temperature of 35°C and 1 atm are k= 0.02625 W/m-K, p= 1.145 kg/m, cp= 1.007
kJ/kg-K, Pr = 0.7268, µ = 1.895 × 10¬5 kg/m-s, Prs = Pra Ts = 100°C = 0.7111.
Determine the pressure drop across the tube bank. (You must provide an answer before moving on to the next part.)
The pressure drop is
Pa.
