Air at 16°C and atmospheric pressure enters a 1.25-cm-ID tube at 30 m/s. For an average wall temperature of 100°C, determine the discharge temperature of the air and the pressure drop if the pipe is (a) 10-cm-long and (b) 102-cm-long.
GIVEN
• Atmospheric air flowing through a tube
• Entering air temperature (Tb,in) = 16°C
• Tube inside diameter (D) = 1.25 cm = 0.0125 m
• Air velocity (V) = 30 m/s
• Average wall surface temperature (Ts) = 100°C
FIND

(a) 10 cm (0.1 m) (b) 102 cm (1.02 m)
ASSUMPTIONS
• Steady state
• The tube is smooth
