Question
A house located in Boulder, Colorado (40° N latitude), has ordinary double-pane windows with 6-mm-thick glasses and the total window areas are 8, 6, 6, and 4 m2 on the south, west, east, and north walls, respectively. Determine the total solar heat gain of the house at 9:00, 12:00, and 15:00 solar time in July. Also, determine the total amount of solar heat gain per day for an average day in January. The shading coefficient of a double pane window with 6-mm thick glasses is SC = 0.82. The incident radiation at different windows at different times are given as in the table.

- 7) Given a window of 20 ft facing east at 40° north latitude, estimate the cooling load due to solar radiation at 4:00 pm for a day in June. Assume the window does not have any interior shading and the shading coefficient is 0.2 (in Btu/hr) (a) 105 (d) 276 (b) 430 (c) 314 (c) 225arrow_forwardA long, thin-walled horizontal tube 10.0cm in diameter with an emissivity of 0.80 is maintained at 120.0°C by the passage of pressurized steam inside the tube. To reduce radiation heat transfer losses, a round, tubular radiation shield with an emissivity of 0.10 is installed surrounding the heated tube, with a gap of 1.00cm between the outside of the tube and the radiation shield. At steady-state operating conditions, the temperature of the radiation shield is measured to be 35.0°C. Calculate the total heat transfer rate per meter length assuming that the gap between the pipe and heat shield is now filled with air at a pressure of 1.00 atm.arrow_forwardA composite wall is comprised of two large plates separated by sheets of refractory insulation. In the installation process, the sheets of thickness L = 50 mm and thermal conductivity k = 0.05 W/mK are separated at 1-m intervals by gaps of width w = 10 mm. The hot and cold plates have temperatures and emissivities of T1 = 400 deg C, emissivity1 = 0.85 and T2 = 35 deg C, emissivity2 = 0.5, respectively. Assume that the plates and insulation are diffuse-gray surfaces. %3D Determine the heat loss by radiation through the gap per unit length of the composite wall (normal to the page). Recognizing that the gaps are located on a 1-m spacing, determine what fraction of the total heat loss through the composite wall is due to transfer by radiation through the insulation gap.

- Consider a cuboidal furnace (l = 5 m, b = 4 m, h = 3 m), whose surfaces closely approximateblack surfaces. The base, top, and side surfaces of the furnace are maintained at uniformtemperatures of (1040) K, (840) K, and (540) K, respectively. Determine (a)the net rate of radiation heat transfer between the base and the side surfaces, (b) the net rate ofradiation heat transfer between the base and the top surface, and (c) the net radiation heattransfer from the base surface. Steam in a heating system flows through tubes whose outer radius is r1 = (3) cm and whosewalls are maintained at a temperature of 127 °C. Circular aluminum fins (k = 180 W/m K) ofouter radius r2 = (6) cm and constant thickness t = 1 mm are attached to the tube. The spacebetween the fins is 3 mm. Heat is transferred to the surrounding air at 27 °C, with a combinedheat transfer coefficient of 60 W/m2 K. Determine the increase in heat transfer from the tubeper meter of its length as a result of adding finsarrow_forwardA copper ball of 20 cm diameter is kept outside open to sky during summer. The ball is capable of receiving and emitting heat by radiation. Identify the satisfactory conditions from the following to treat the ball as a block body.
