What is difference between Overall heat transfer coeficient & individual heat transfer coeffi..

Answer / sharadha

O.H.T.C is usually used in conduction-convection systems
where there are several resistances in series formed on the
heat transfer surface.
I.H.T.C is used only for convection systems where der is
only a single resistance to the heat transfer surface.this
is d basic difference.

What is difference between Overall heat transfer coeficient & individual heat transfer coeffi..

Answer / prokash

There are two type of heat transfer co-efficient.
Internal heat transfer co-efficient and external heat
transfer co-efficient. they are separately called individual
heat transfer coefficient. and the combined effect of them
to heat transfer is called Overall heat transfer coeficient.

What is difference between Overall heat transfer coeficient & individual heat transfer coeffi..

Answer / apurva

Overall heat transfer coefficient is the conductance for all the materials through which heat is flowing. It can be obtain by adding individual heat transfer coefficients for each material.
Just like getting electrical resistance from the circuit, heat transfer coefficient varies with the material presence of material in the series or parallel attachments.

What is difference between Overall heat transfer coeficient & individual heat transfer coeffi..

Answer / aroh shrivastava

the sum of indivisual heat transfer coeffincint that is
film coefficint is called UHTc. and when it take
indivisually it is called IHTC.

Question 79 - (a) The American Petroleum Institute gravity, or API gravity, is a measure of how heavy or light a petroleum liquid is compared to water. Let SG = specific gravity of petroleum liquid, and V = barrels of crude oil per metric ton. Given the formula for API gravity = 141.5 / SG - 131.5 and V = (API gravity + 131.5) / (141.5 x 0.159), find the relationship of SG as a function of V. (b) An oil barrel is about 159 litres. If a cylinder with diameter d = 50 cm and height h = 50 cm is used to contain the oil, find the volume V of the cylinder in the unit of oil barrel by using the formula V = 3.142 x d x h x d / 4. (c) First reference : 1 cubic metre = 6.2898 oil barrels. Second reference : 1 cubic metre = 6.37 oil barrels. What are the 2 factors that cause the difference in such reference data?

MY generator water cooler inlet line height - 11 mtr inlet water line height - 7 mtr water come into the line from overhead tank, O/H tank height - 20 mtr the first tapping in the inlet line is 2" line which down to 4 mtr level plateform., second tapping in inlet water line goes to a pump 6" line installed at 4 mtr level plateform, pump capacity 200m3/hr, head- 30 mtr, hp-40. the outlet of pump of 6" water line connected to a header of 6 mtr long of 6" line, on this header the six tapping are connected, 4 nos. 3" line goes to 11 mtr height water cooler the pressure of the line is 0.15 to 0.25 kg/cm2, 2" and 4" pipe line connected to a cooler at 4 mtrlevel plateform. my question is, at 11 mtr height level the quantity of water and flow is not sufficient for my cooler, the temp. of cooler is rises much more. you are requested to suggest the modification of pipe line/ pump for take more water flow and pressure (desired pressure is 1 kg/cm2)
