Answer with Explanation:
Part a)
The volume of water in the tank as a function of time is plotted in the below attached figure.
The vertical intercept of the graph is 46.
Part b)
The vertical intercept represents the volume of water that is initially present in the tank before draining begins.
Part c)
To find the time required to completely drain the tank we calculate the volume of the water in the tank to zero.
Part d)
The horizontal intercept represents the time it takes to empty the tank which as calculated above is 13.143 minutes.
Answer:
The tube surface temperature immediately after installation is 120.4°C and after prolonged service is 110.8°C
Explanation:
The properties of water at 100°C and 1 atm are:
pL = 957.9 kg/m³
pV = 0.596 kg/m³
ΔHL = 2257 kJ/kg
CpL = 4.217 kJ/kg K
uL = 279x10⁻⁶Ns/m²
KL = 0.68 W/m K
σ = 58.9x10³N/m
When the water boils on the surface its heat flux is:
For copper-water, the properties are:
Cfg = 0.0128
The heat flux is:
qn = 0.9 * 18703.42 = 16833.078 W/m²
The tube surface temperature immediately after installation is:
Tinst = 100 + 20.4 = 120.4°C
For rough surfaces, Cfg = 0.0068. Using the same equation:
ΔT = 10.8°C
The tube surface temperature after prolonged service is:
Tprolo = 100 + 10.8 = 110.8°C
