Question
Water at 20 °C flows at 3 m/s in the annulus of a concentric tube heat exchanger.
The annulus is the area between two concentric circles. The inner wall of the
annulus has a diameter of 25 mm and the outer wall a diameter of 50 mm. What is
the pressure drop over 30 meters if
i) the walls are taken as smooth?
ii) the walls are made of commercial steel?
Water has p = 10³ kg/m³ and µ = 10-³ Pa.s.
