Tube side heat transfer co-efficient for turbulent flow of liquid through tubes is proportional to___________________?
Correct answer: C. G0.8
- A. G0.2
- B. G0.5
- C. G0.8
- D. G1.5
Explanation
For turbulent flow in tubes, standard correlations such as Dittus-Boelter contain the mass-velocity term approximately to the 0.8 power. Therefore the coefficient varies as G^0.8.
