In a biomedical processing plant, a newly developed liquid drug or medication that leaves a mixing chamber at 20°C needs to be heated to 70°C in a thermal curing process. This is achieved by heating the liquid media at the rate of 10 kg/h in a thin metallic circular pipe with a 10 mm inner diameter that is electrically heated by wrapping it in resistance wire and insulation. If the tube surface is heated with a constant heat flux of 5,100 W/m2, calculate the length of tubing needed for this heat exchange device and the inner surface temperature of the pipe at its exit. Assume fully developed convection, and verify this assumption after calculating the length. The physical properties of the fluid media are considered as follows: Cp= 4.0 kJ/(kg K), k= 0.5 W/(m K), ?= 0.002 Ns/m2, and

?=1000 kg/m3 GIVEN • Diameter of copper tube (Di)= 10 mm = 0.01 m • Cooling water inlet temperature (Tin)= 200C • Cooling water flow rate ( m• )=10 kg/hr = 2.78*10-3 kg/s • Cooling water outlet temperature (Tout)= 700C • Surface heat flux(q’’) = 5100 W/m2 FIND (a) Length of tubing needed for this heat exchange device. (b) Inner surface temperature of pipe at exit. PROPERTIES AND CONSTANTS Given, for the fluid Density (?) = 1000 kg/m3 Specific heat (cp) = 4000 J/(kg K) Thermal conductivity (k) = 0.5 W/(m K) Absolute viscosity (?) = 0.002 (Ns)/m2

Which of the following represents one of the major splits in physical science before and after about 1895?

The loss of the feeling that everything in nature could be understood through reasoning with the introduction of quantum mechanics after about 1895. With the explanation of blackbody radiation in 1887, after 1895 the world worked towards modeling quantum mechanics. The ether was found to exist and was generally accepted after about 1895 as the electromagnetic medium. Both matter and light appeared to be best modeled by a wave rather than a particle after about 1895.
