Chapter 2, Problem 2.15P

Suppose that a pipe carrying a hot fluid with an external temperature of T i and outer radius r i is to be insulated with an insulation material of thermal conductivity k and outer radius r o . Show that if the convection heat transfer coefficient on the outside of the insulation is h ¯ and the environmental temperature is T , the addition of insulation actually increases the rate of heat loss if r o < k / h ¯ , and the maximum heat loss occurs when r o = k / h ¯ . This radius, r c r is often called the critical radius.

A cylindrical reactor made of copper with a radius of a= r=5mm has a heat conduction coefficient of k=386 W/moC, and there is heat generation at e ̇= (q ) ̇= 4x10^8 W/m3 inside this reactor. The cylindrical reactor convection heat transfer coefficient is h=2000 W/m0C and 〖T_(ambient= ) T〗_∞= 30 oC by convection, it cools down from the reactor surface to the center. According to the given boundary conditions a)Find the reactor surface temperature and the temperature T(a) at r=a. (VARIABLES: r=1-10mm, T_∞= 0-100oC) b) q(a) =((q ) ̇ * a )/ 2    = (e ̇ * a )/ 2 then find the heat flux amount in kW/m2
Stainless steel pipes with a thermal conductivity of 17 W/ (m° C) are used to transport hot oil. The temperature inside the tube is 130 ° C. The inner diameter of the pipe is 8 cm and the thickness of the pipe wall is 2 cm. The pipe is then insulated with 4 cm thick insulation with a thermal conductivity of 0.035 W / (m° C). The ambient temperature of the pipe is 25 ° C. Calculate the temperature between the steel and the insulation if we assume a steady state. A picture of the pipe can be seen below.
Q1/ Consider a large plane wall of thickness L=0.03 m. The wall surface at x =0 is insulated, while the surface at x =L is maintained at a temperature of 30°C. The thermal conductivity of the wall is k=25 W/m °C, and heat is generated in the wall at a rate of g = 9oe0.5x/L W/m³ Where g, = 8 x 10 W /m². Assuming steady one-dimensional heat transfer, (a) express the differential equation and the boundary conditions for heat conduction through the wall, (b) obtain a relation for the variation of temperature in the wall by solving the differential equation, and (c) determine the temperature of the insulated surface of the wall.
