here is the question
In an industrial process, products of combustion at a temperature and pressure of 2000 K and 1 atm, respectively, flow through a long, 0.25-m diameter pipe whose inner surface is black. The combustion gas contains CO2 and water vapor, each at a partial pressure of 0.10 atm. The gas may be assumed to have the thermophysical properties of atmospheric air and to be in fully developed flow with m˙=0.25 kg/s. The pipe is cooled by passing water in cross flow over its outer surface. The upstream velocity and temperature of the water are 0.30 m/s and 300 K, respectively.
(a) Determine the pipe wall temperature, Ts.
(b) Determine the heat flux, qtotal.
Hint: Emission from the pipe wall may be neglected.
my attemv
i've to use the energy balance equation to solve this question (a)
ϵgσTg4+h1(Tg−Ts)=h2(Ts−T∞)
the pipe wall temperature is Ts
ϵg: emissivity of the gas
σ: Stefan-Boltzmann constant
Tg: temperature of the gas
Ts: temperature of the surface
T∞: temperature of the surroundings
h1: convective heat transfer coefficient related to the gas
h2: convective heat transfer coefficient related to the water
i understand the main two ingredients in the questions is carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O
i think a lot of information is missing like the mean of the pipe length Lc due to radiaion, not given
and there's no enough information to find it
i need this information to solve the emissivity of carbon dioxide ϵc and the emissivity of water ϵw
which necessary to find ϵg also calculating h1 and h2 need a lot of information which is not given
for example what is Reylond's numbers Re1 and Re2?
