SUBGROUP: ________

FORCED CONVECTION
1. Differentiate between natural convection or forced convection. How
can we increase the rate of convective heat transfer in this
experiment?

2. Explain the effects of wind speed and moving fluid temperature on

the rate of heat transfer by forced convection.

CONCENTRIC TUBE HEAT EXCHANGER

1. Sketch and explain parallel and counter flow concentric tube heat
exchangers in terms of flow direction, temperature drop, and log
mean temperature difference (LMTD) formulation.

2. In concentric tube heat exchanger experiment, a few assumptions

have been made before analysis can be done. List down your
assumptions and justify the needs for such assumptions.
