Forced Convection
1) Water at rate of 0.8 kg/sec, is heated from 35 °C to 40 °C in a 2.5 cm
diameter tube whose surface is at 90 °C. how long must tube be to
accomplish this heat?
2) Water at the rate of 0.5 kg/sec, is forced through a smooth 2.5 cm ID
tube of 15 m long. The inlet water temperature is 10 °C, and the tube
wall temperature is 15 °C higher than the water temperature all
along the length of the tube. What is the exit water temperature?
3) Air at 1400 kN/m2 enters a duct 7.5 cm in diameter and 6 m long at a
rate of 0.5 kg/sec. The duct wall is maintained at an average
temperature off 200 °C. The average air temperature in the duct is
250 °C. Estimate the decrease in temperature of the air as it passes
through the duct.
4) Helium at 1 atm. and 38 °C flows across a 3 mm diameter cylinder
which is heated to 150 °C. The flow velocity is 9 m/sec. Calculate the
heat transfer per unit length of wire. How does this compare with the
heat transfer from air under the same conditions?
5) Calculate the heat transfer rate per unit length for flow over a 0.025
mm diameter cylinder maintained at 65 °C. perform the calculation
for;
a) Air at 20 °C and 1 atm.
b) Water at 20 °C and u∞= 6 m/sec.
6) Water at a mean temperature of 60 C flows inside a 5 cm ID tube
with a velocity u = 3 m/sec. Determine the heat transfer coefficient
for the fully developed turbulent flow.
7) Water flows through a tube of 2.2cm in diameter with a velocity of 2
m/s. The water is heated from 15°C to 60°C by condensing the steam
at 150 °C on the outer surface of the tube. Using the equation

Find out the heat transfer coefficient and the length of the tube required
for transferring the above amount of heat. Neglect the tube resistance
as well as outer surface film resistance.
