ASSIGNMENT 3

Problem 1 CLO -
Fluid at a velocity V is flowing in a circular tube of diameter D. Derive an expression for the Reynolds
number R for flow in the circular tube.

Problem 2 CLO -
Derive an expression for the Logarithmic Mean Temperature Difference when the surface temperature of
tube is constant.

Problem 3 CLO -
Air flows inside a duct and it is cooled by water outside. The exit temperature of air and the rate of
heat transfer are to be determined.
Assumptions
1 Steady operating conditions exist.
2 The surface temperature of the duct is constant.
3 The thermal resistance of the duct is negligible.
Properties
The properties of air at the anticipated average temperature of 30°C are
