Question
14. A 6-foot-long circular pipe used to transfer hot water
has inner and outer diameters of 1 inch and 1.25 inches,
respectively. The pipe is made of copper. The copper alloy
is unknown. Inside the pipe, hot water (170 °F) flows very
quickly (average velocity is 20 ft/sec.) The convective heat
transfer coefficient between the flowing water and the
inside of the pipe is unknown. The properties for water at
this temperature are:
Thermal Conductivity = 0.385 Btu/hr-ft-°F
Specific Heat = 1.001 Btu/lbm-°F
Density=
= 61 lbm/ft³
The environment outside the pipe is 73 °F air and the
convective heat transfer coefficient is 2.2 Btu/hr-ft²-°F.
170 °F water flow
at 20 ft/sec
Room air, 73 °F.
heat transfer coefficient = 2.2

1.25 inches
1. Estimate the rate of heat transfer from the flowing water
and the air.
2. Estimate the temperature change of the water as it moves
through the 6-foot length of pipe.
Hint: The mass flowrate of the water is: PAV, where is
the average velocity of the pipe.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given That:

Inner Diameter = 1 inch

outer diameter = 1.25 inch

temperature of water = 170 0F

Average velocity = 20 ft/sec

Thermal conductivity = 0.385 Btu/hr-ft-0F

Convective heat transfer coefficient = 2.2 Btu/hr-ft2-0F
