Water is flowing through a 25-mm diameter and 10-m long tube. The water enters the tube at 20\deg C with a mass flow rate of 0.2 kg/s. The outlet mean temperature is 60\deg C, and the tube surface temperature is maintained constant. Determine the hydrodynamic and thermal entry.lengths. Is the flow fully developed? What is the convective heat transfer coefficient inside the pipe?
