Air at 1 atm. and 30 °C flows across a bank of tubes 12 rows high and 8 rows deep at a velocity of 8 m/s measured at a point in the flow before the air enters the tube bank. The surfaces of the tubes maintained at 80 °C. The diameter of the tubes is 5 cm. They arranged in an in-line manner so that the spacing in both the normal and parallel directions to the flow is 7.5 cm. Calculate a- The out temperature of air b- Total heat transfer for the bank of tube if the length of each tube is 1.5 m c- Pressure drops across the bank of tube d- Repeat for case of staggered.
