Question:

Ethylene glycol is heated from 20°C to 40°C at a rate of 1.0 kg/s in a horizontal copper tube (k = 386 W/m(K) with an inner diameter of 2.0 cm and an outer diameter of 2.5 cm. A saturated vapor (Tg = 110°C) condenses on the outside-tube surface with the heat transfer coefficient (in kW/m2 (K) given by 9.2/(Tg - Tw)0.25, where Tw is the average outside-tube wall temperature. What tube length must be used? Take the properties of ethylene glycol to be =1109 kg/m3, cp = 2428 J/kg(K, k = 0.253 W/m(°C, = 0.01545 kg/m(s, and Pr = 148.5.
