Question
Water is flowing inside a horizontal 1.25 in. schedule 40 steel pipe at 37.8°C and a velocity of
1.52 m/s. Steam at 108.3°C is condensing on the outside of the pipe wall and the steam
coefficient is assumed constant at 9100 W/m²K.
a. Calculate the convective coefficient for the water (in SI)
b. Calculate the overall coefficient based on the inside area and the transfer flux in W/m²
c. Determine the new convective and overall coefficient of water if the water enters through
a 90° round bend before entering the steel pipe (use the formula found in Perry's handbook;
use SI system)
