Question

Hot engine oil with heat capacity rate of 4440 w/k (product of mass flow rate and specific heat) and an inlet temperature of 150°c flows through a double pipe heat exchanger. the double pipe heat exchanger is constructed of a 1.5-m-long copper pipe (k = 250 w/m·k) with an inner tube of inside diameter 2 cm and outside tube diameter of 2.25 cm. the inner diameter of the outer tube of the double pipe heat exchanger is 6 cm. oil flowing at a rate of 2 kg/s through inner tube exits the heat exchanger at a temperature of 50°c. the cold fluid, i. e., water enters the heat exchanger at 20°c and exits at 70°c. assuming the fouling factor on the oil side and water side to be 0.00015 m2 ·k/w and 0.0001 m2 ·k/w, respectively, determine the overall heat transfer coefficient on inner and outer surface of the copper tube.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

fluid, i. e., water enters the heat exchanger at 20°c and exits at 70°c. assuming the fouling factor on the oil side and water side to be 0.00015 m2 ·k/w and 0.0001 m2 ·k/w, respectively, determine the overall heat transfer coefficient on inner and outer surface of the copper tube.xgjicbb .follow me
