cooling system
(OP)
Hi everyone,
I am trying to design a cooling system, which contains a big container inside it static fluid, and I have to design pipes go through the big container,the pipes should have cold liquid inside it and this liquid has velocity, I know for the pipes I have to use the following formula:
q= m*cp*(T1-T2)
My question is how can include the material of the pipe which should be important? because the previous formula involve cp for the liquid only?
MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE.

Convection is of the form:
q = area*convection_coefficient*delta_temp
Conduction is of the form:
q = area*(thermal_conductivity/thickness)*delta_temp
Your equation:
q = mass*heat_capacity*delta_temp is used to determine the amount of heat to be removed. However, your large container has its own thermal losses, which include a convection-conduction-convection pathway, just like the pipe inside.

Perhaps just a bit more information is needed.
