Heat Transfer In a heat exchanger with steam outside the tubes, a liquid gets heated to 45°C, when its flow velocity in the tubes is 2 m/s. If the flow velocity is reduced to 1 m/s, other things remaining the same, the temperature of the exit liquid will be Less than 45°C Equal to 45°C Initially decreases and remains constant thereafter More than 45°C Less than 45°C Equal to 45°C Initially decreases and remains constant thereafter More than 45°C ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Heat Transfer A composite wall consists of two plates A and B placed in series normal to the flow of heat. The thermal conductivities are kA and kB and the specific heat capacities are CPA and CPB for plates A and B respectively. Plate B has twice the thickness of plate A. At steady state, the temperature difference across plate A is greater than that across plate B, when CPA < CPB CPA > CPB KA>2 kB KA < 0.5kB CPA < CPB CPA > CPB KA>2 kB KA < 0.5kB ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
