Q6/ Water at 15°C is to be heated to 65°C by passing it over a bundle of 4-m-long 1-cm-diameter resistance heater rods maintained at 90°C. Water approaches the heater rod bundle in normal direction at a mean velocity of 0.8 m/s. The rods arc arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of SP = 4 cm and SN = 3 cm. Determine the number of tube rows in the flow direction needed to achieve the indicated temperature rise.

Question
Q6/ Water at 15°C is to be heated to 65°C by passing it over a bundle of 4-m-long 1-cm-diameter
resistance heater rods maintained at 90°C. Water approaches the heater rod bundle in normal
direction at a mean velocity of 0.8 m/s. The rods arc arranged in-line with longitudinal and
transverse pitches of SP = 4 cm and SN = 3 cm. Determine the number of tube rows in the flow
direction needed to achieve the indicated temperature rise.
Ans= N=206
