Question:
Calculate the overall heat-transfer coefficients based on both inside and outside areas for the following cases.
Case 1 Water at 10°C flowing in a 3/4-in. 16 BWG condenser tube and saturated steam at 105°C condensing on the outside. hi = 12 kW/m2 · °C. h∘ = 14 kW/m2∙°C. km = 120 W/m · °C.
Case 2 Benzene condensing at atmospheric pressure on the outside of a 25-mm steel pipe and air at 15°C flowing within at 6 m/s. The pipe wall is 3.5 mm thick. hi = 20 W/m2 · °C. h∘ = 1.200 W/m2 · °C. km = 45 W/m · °C.
Case 3 Dropwise condensation from steam at a pressure of 50 lbƒ/in.2 gauge on a 1-in. Schedule 40 steel pipe carrying oil at 100°F, h∘ = 14,000 Btu/ft2 · h · °F. hi =130 Btu/ft2 · h · °F. km = 26 Btu/ft · h · °F.
