A steam pipe passes through a chemical plant, where wind passes in cross-flow over the outside of the pipe. The steam is saturat

ed at 17.90 bar and you can assume that the resistances to heat transfer inside the pipe and of the pipe itself are minimal, so that the outside surface temperature of the pipe is equal to the saturation temperature of the steam. The pipe is stainless steel and has an outside diameter of 6.75 cm and a length of 34.7 m. The air flows over the pipe at 7.6 m/s and has a bulk fluid temperature of 27 °C.
A. What is the rate of heat transfer from the pipe to the air?
B. would your answer change if the air flow direction changes to parallel flow? If so, calculate that q as well.

Answer:

a) the rate of heat transfer from the pipe to the air is 23.866 watts

b) YES, the rate of heat transfer changes to 3518.61 watt

Explanation:

Given that:

steam is saturated at 17.90 bar.

the pipe is stainless steel and has an outside diameter of 6.75 cm

length = 34.7 m

Air flows over the pipe at 7.6 m/s

Bulk fluid temperature of 27°C

we know that

hD/k = 0.028 (Re)^0.8 (Pr)^0.33

Outside diameter of pipe = 6.75 cm

length of the pipe = 34.7 m

velocity of air = 7.6 m/s

Cp of air = 1.005 kJ/Kgk

viscosity of air = 1.81 × 10⁻⁵ kg/(m.sec)

thermal conductivity of air = 2.624 × 10⁻⁵ kw/m.k

so as

hD/k = 0.028 (Re)^0.8 (Pr)^0.33

hD/k = 0.028 (Dvp / u)^0.8 (Cpu / k)^0.33

(h × 0.0675 / 2.624 × 10⁻⁵) = (0.028 ([0.0675 × 7.6 × 1.225] / [1.81 ×10⁻⁵])^0.8) (((1.005 × 1.81 × 10⁻⁵) / (2.624 × 10⁻⁵))^0.33))

h = 0.0414 w/m².k

a)

Now to find the rate of heat transfer Q

Q = hAΔT

Q = 0.0414 × (2π × 0.03375 × 34.7) × (105.383 - 27)

Q = 23.866 watts

therefore the rate of heat transfer from the pipe to the air is 23.866 watts

b)

Now the flow direction changes to parallel flow, then

(h × 0.0675 / 2.624 × 10⁻⁵) = (0.028 ([34.7 × 7.6 × 1.225] / [1.81 ×10⁻⁵])^0.8) (((1.005 × 1.81 × 10⁻⁵) / (2.624 × 10⁻⁵))^0.33))

h = 6.1036 w/m².k

so from the steam table, saturated steam at 17.70 bar, temperature of steam will be 105.383°C

so to find the rate of heat transfer Q

Q = hAΔT

Q = 6.1036 × (2π × 0.03375 × 34.7) × (105.383 - 27)

Q = 3518.61 watt

Therefore the rate of heat transfer changes to 3518.61 watt

Calculate the differential pressure in kPa across the hatch of a submarine 320m below the surface of the sea. Assume the atmosph
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

The pressure difference across hatch of the submarine is 3217.68 kpa.

Explanation:

Gauge pressure is the pressure above the atmospheric pressure. If we consider gauge pressure for finding pressure differential then no need to consider atmospheric pressure as they will cancel out. According to hydrostatic law, pressure varies in the z direction only.  

Given:

Height of the hatch is 320 m

Surface gravity of the sea water is 1.025.

Density of water 1000 kg/m³.

Calculation:

Step1

Density of sea water is calculated as follows:

S.G=\frac{\rho_{sw}}{\rho_{w}}

Here, density of sea water is\rho_{sw}, surface gravity is S.G and density of water is \rho_{w}.

Substitute all the values in the above equation as follows:

S.G=\frac{\rho_{sw}}{\rho_{w}}

1.025=\frac{\rho_{sw}}{1000}

\rho_{sw}=1025 kg/m³.

Step2

Difference in pressure is calculated as follows:

\bigtriangleup p=rho_{sw}gh

\bigtriangleup p=1025\times9.81\times320

\bigtriangleup p=3217680 pa.

Or

\bigtriangleup p=(3217680pa)(\frac{1kpa}{100pa})

\bigtriangleup p=3217.68 kpa.

Thus, the pressure difference across hatch of the submarine is 3217.68 kpa.
