To cool a summer home without using a vapor compression refrigeration cycle, air is routed through a plastic pipe (k=0.15 W/m*K, D_inner=0.15m, D_outer=0.17m) that is submerged in an adjoining body of water. the water temperature is nominally at T_infinity=17 degrees Celsius and has a convection coefficient of h=1500W/m^2*K is maintained at the outer surface of the pipe. If air from the home enters at T_m, i=29 degrees Celsius and a volumetric flow rate of V_i=0.025 m^3/s, what pipe length, L, is needed to provide a discharge temperature of T_m, o=21 degrees Celsius?
