liquid temperature at tube outlet?
Hi,
I would like to calculate the liquid temperature at the tube outlet given the following conditions: 1. Tube is made of Teflon (ID 0.06" OD 0.1") 2. Water flows inside the tube at 1.2 ml/sec 3. Assuming constant temperature (306 K) at the outside wall of the tube 4. Inlet liquid temperature is 293 K. 5. Tube length is 0.1 meter Is there a quick way to estimate the water temperature at the exit of the tube? I used elmer (www.csc.fi/elmer) to perform the calculation. The results showed that, after 1 cm from the inlet, the water temperature already reached almost 306 K. I am not sure if this is correct giving the high inlet velocity (0.66 m/sec). I am looking for a way to check if this is even close. Thanks! Pei |
