    water to water heat exchange

    Thanks All for your posts. I can understand how "25362" is leading me to solve the problem, however I cant seem to arrage the equation with consistant units so that only A="x"m^2 is left after canceling etc. Zekeman, how does your equation differ? 810ft. does not look good. But If I'm reading...

    water to water heat exchange

    Patricia, Thanks for your post. To clarify, the temp of the transient water would decrease as the heat is trasferred to the potable water but the volume and flow rate of the transient water should make this temp drop negligible, at least for the calculation I'm trying to make. I guess I should...

    I forgot to post a flow rate. Lets assume 10gpm. Thanks again.

    water to water heat exchange

    Hello All, I'm trying to determine the distance that water, with an inlet temp of +- 50*F, will have to travel to reach the desired temp of 120*F. This potable water, traveling in 3/4 copper tubing, will be submerged in transiet water of 140*F inside a PVC tube. I will assume that the temps of...
