Water enters a tube at 27°c with a flow rate of 450 kg/h. the heat transfer from the tube wall to the fluid is given as q', (w/m) - ax, where the coefficient a is 20 w/m2 and .x (m) is the axial distance from the tube entrance.

a) beginning with a properly defined differential control volume in the tube, derive an expression for the temperature distribution tm(x) of the water.

b) what is the outlet temperature of the water for a heated section 30 m long?

c) sketch the mean fluid temperature, tm(x), and the tube wall temperature, t,(x), as a function of distance along the tube for fully developed and developing flow conditions.

d) what value of a uniform wall heat flux, q", (instead of q's-ax), would provide the same fluid outlet temperature as that determined in part (b)? for this type of heating, sketch the temperature distributions requested in part (c).

An external consultant recommends that a plant installs a bank of capacitors for power factor correction. this will reduce the peak electrical demand charges by an average of 93 kw every month. the plant current pays $13 per kw in peak demand charges. the capacitor bank will include 223 kw of fixed capacitors, and 183 of variable capacitors. the fixed capacitors cost $59 per kw, and the variable capacitors will cost $65 per kw. the consultant charges 21% of the equipment costs to install the capacitors. because this project will reduce the demand for the electric utility, they are prepared to provide a one-time rebate of $42 per kw of reduced demand. what is the simple payback period for this project (in years)?
