A thick-walled cylindrical tubing of hard rubber (k=0.151 W/m*K) having an inside radius of 5 mm and an outside radius of 20 mm is being used as a temporary cooling coil in a bath. Ice water is flowing rapidly inside, and the inside wall temperature is 275 K. The outside surface temperature is 300 K. A total of 20 W must be removed from the bath by the cooling coil. How many meter of tubing are needed?
Water is heated by submerging 50 mm-diameter, thin-walled copper tubes in a tank and
passing hot combustion gases (Ig = 750 K) through the tubes. To enhance heat transfer to the
water, four straight fins of uniform cross section, which form a cross, are inserted in each
tube. The fins are 5 mm thick and are also made of copper (k = 400 W/m.K). If the tube
surface temperature is T= 350 K and the mass flow rate of gas = 1.1 kg/s.
What is the overall efficiency of the fins? Treat gas as air.

to the surface of the pipe. The ambient is at 25°C and the heat
transfer coefficient is h-40.
