MID TERM EXAMINATION
Fifth SEMESTER {BCT} October 2020
Paper Code:BCT-305 Subject: Heat Transfer
Time: 1 hour Maximum marks: 15
Note: *Attempts all questions. Mention the assumptions clearly.

1. It is desired to heat 9820 lb/hr of cold benzene from 80 to 120 oF using hot toluene which is cooled from 160 to 100 oF
. The specific gravities at 68 oF are 0.88 and 0.87, respectively. The other fluid properties will be found in data book. A
fouling factor of 0.001 should be provided for each stream, and allowable pressure drop on each stream is 10.0 psi. A

number of 20-ft hairpins of 2 by 11/4 -in. IPS pipe are available. How many hairpins are required? (Diameter inner

pipe0.138ft, Diameter outer pipe: 0.1725ft)

Properties of Benzene at 100oF : Heat capacity: 0.425Btu/(lb)( oF), Viscosity: 0.50cp

Properties of Toluene at 130oF: Heat capacity: 0.44Btu/(lb)( oF), Viscosity: 0.41cp [8]

2. What are the different methods of analysis of two dimensional conduction systems. Calculate the steady state
temperatures for nodes 1 to 9 in the figure. [4]

3. Derive the general relation for heat flow in a cylinder having Qg volumetric rate of heat generation. [3]
