Steam in a heating system flows through tubes whose outer diameter is 5 cm and whose walls are maintained at a temperature of 135°C. Circular aluminum alloy 2024-T6 fins (k = 186 W/m⋅K) of outer diameter 6 cm and constant thickness 1 mm are attached to the tube. The space between the fins is 3 mm, and thus there are 250 fins per meter length of the tube. Heat is transferred to the surrounding air at T[infinity] = 25°C, with a heat transfer coefficient of 40 W/m2⋅K. Determine the increase in heat transfer from the tube per meter of its length as a result of adding fins.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
