Chapter 2, Problem 2.22P

A cylindrical liquid oxygen (LOX) tank has a diameter of 1.22 m, a length of 6.1 m, and hemispherical ends. The boiling point of LOX is -179 .4°C . An insulation is sought that will reduce the boil-off rate in the steady state to no more than 11.3 kg/h. The heat of vaporization of LOX is 214 kJ/kg. If the thickness of this insulation is to be no more than 7.5 cm, what would the value of its thermal conductivity have to be?

In boiling water at 1 atm pressure outside a stainless-steel tube with a surface temperature of 410F, the heat-transfer coefficient h in the absence of radiation is 32 Btu/h*ft^2*F. If the emissivity of the stainless steel is 0.8, will radiation significantly augment the rate of boiling (e.g., by more than 5 percent)? Assume that the vapor film is transparent to radiation and the boiling liquid is opaque.
Saturated, pure steam at a temperature of 170 oC condenses on the outer surface of a vertical tube of outer diameter 2 cm and length 1.5 m. The tube surface is maintained at a uniform temperature of 150 oC. Calculate: the local film condensation heat-transfer coefficient at the bottom of the tube.   the average condensation heat-transfer coefficient over the entire length of the tube. the total condensation rate at the tube surface.
Which mode or condensation is characterized by larger heat transfer rates?
