Water at 290 K and 0.25 kg/s flows through a Teflon tube of inner and outer radii equal to 10 and 14 mm, respectively. A thin electrical heating tape wrapped around the outer surface of the tube delivers a uniform surface heat flux of 2500 W/m2 , while a convection coefficient of 25 W/m2 ·K is maintained on the outer surface of the tape by ambient air at 300 K. What is the fraction of the power dissipated by the tape, which is transferred to the water? What is the outer surface temperature of the Teflon tube? (Hint: draw a thermal circuit and consider where the various "currents" are flowing.)

Apiping systems consists of 6 m of 6-std type k and 12 m of 4-std type k, both drawn copper tubing. the system conveys ethylene glycol at a rate of 0.013 m3/s. the pressure drop across the system is to be calculated. there are two 90° elbows in the 6-in pipe, a reduction from the 6-in pipe to the 4-in pipe and four 90° elbows in the 4-in pipe. all fittings are soldered (same as flanged) and regular. the inlet and outlet of the system are at the same height.
