Fluid X is flowing in a circular pipe with a constant velocity ν (m/s). The fluid is cooled by a jacket kept at constant temperature, Tj. Fluid velocity is plug shaped , in other words uniform at radial positions. Assume that temperature is uniform in radial positions because of turbulent flow conditions; ρ and Cp of the fluid are constants. The inlet temperature (at z=0) is constant and uniform at To (To>Tj). Assume that thermal conduction of heat along the...
