Hi Guys. I'm a mechanical engineer and have a bit trouble, would be very glad if you could help me with my questions.

I have a pressurized tank which contains Natural Gas at 200 Bar and 293 Kelvin. This tank is directly connected to a heat exchanger and in that device, the gas must be cooled to 150 Kelvin and will be stored as LNG at 20 Bar. I have to determine the necessary tube dimensions of the heat exchanger (Radius and Lenght) but I'm a bit confused since I dont have any informations about the flow velocity nor the flow rate. I need an idea how I could determine the flow rate of the gas. If i select the tube diameter randomly, what would be the flow rate of the gas at the exit of the pressurized tank?
