Mechanical Engineering > GATE 2013 SET-3 > Convection
Water (specific heat, cp = 4.18 kJ/kgK) enters a pipe at a rate of 0.01 kg/s and a temperature of 20°C. The pipe, of diameter 50 mm and length 3 m, is subjected to a wall heat flux q"w in W/m2.

If q"w = 2500x, where x is in m and in the direction of flow (x=0 at the inlet), the bulk mean temperature of the water leaving the pipe in °C is
A
42
B
62
C
74
D
104

Correct : b
