In a heat exchanger, as shown in accompanying figure, air flows over brass tubes of 1.8- cm-ID and 2.1-cm-OD that contain steam. The convection heat-transfer coefficients on the air and steam sides of the tubes are 70 W/(m2 K) and 210 W/(m2 K), respectively. Calculate the overall heat transfer coefficient for the heat exchanger (a) based on the inner tube area, (b) based on the outer tube area.

GIVEN
• Air flow over brass tubes containing steam
• Tube diameters
? Inside (Di) = 1.8 cm = 0.018 m
? Outside (Do) = 2.1 cm = 0.021 m

? Steam side h i= 210 W/(m2 K)
FIND
