-
When does the heat generated by fluid friction becomes appreciable compared to the heat transferred between the fluids ?
-
The Sieder-Tate correlation for heat transfer in turbulent flow in pipe gives Nu α Re0.8, where, Nu is the Nusselt number and Re is the Reynolds number for the flow. Assuming that this relation is valid, the heat transfer co-efficient varies with the pipe diameter (D) as

A long iron rod initially at a temperature of 20°C has one end dipped in boiling water (100°C) at time, t = 0. The curved surface of the rod is insulated so that heat conduction is one dimensional in the axial direction. The temperature at a distance 100 mm from the dipped end becomes 40°C at time, t = 200 s. The same temperature is achieved at a distance of 200 mm from the dipped end at time

LMTD for evaporators & condensers for a given terminal parameters & set of conditions for counterflow is equal to that for parallel flow. In such heat exchangers, with one of the fluids condensing or evaporating, the surface area required is the least in the __________ flow.
-
Thermal diffusivity of a material
-
Viscosity of gases __________ with increase in temperature.
-
Steam is routed through the tube in case of a __________ evaporator.
-
Dropwise condensation of steam on cooling surface is promoted
-
Conduction occurs in the buffer zone for a fluid flowing through a heated pipe, only when Prandtl number is
