Have been slightly racking my brains trying to remember the basics of this, but have a quick and probably pretty simple heat transfer problem. Was in a discussion
Two standard 1000 liters square enclosed plastic HDPE containers (1m x 1m x 1m).
One is filled up 800 liters (some air present at...
The exit stream temperature is the same temperature as inside the tank. Also assuming that the exit stream vs return stream delta T is constant (so, 7 degrees cooler upon return).
Having difficulty remembering how to model a simple heat transfer equation for a liquid tank/piping system and wondering if anyone can provide some quick help.
I have a 1000L tank of water that is heated by a 1kW heater (target temp of 43°C). The piping system (outside of the tank), holds 100L...
