Heat transfer coffefficient from mass flow


If we have a pipe with dimensions

D=0.006m
L=0.01m

and a mass flow of m' = 0.019 kg/s

How can we determine the heat transfer coefficient of the pipe?

The thickness of the pipe doesnt have to be accounted for..

You also need to know the transport properties of the fluid: thermal conductivity, viscosity, density, heat capacity. Calculate the Reynolds number and the Prantdl number. Then use the standard heat transfer correlations for flow in a pipe in Perry's or Marks' handbook to get the heat transfer coefficient.
