A steel tube with 5 cm internal diameter, 7.6 cm outer diameter and k=15W/m °C is covered with an isolative covering of thickness 2 cm and k= 0.2 W/m °C. A hot gas at 330 °C with h = 400 W/m².°C flows inside the tube. The outer surface of the insulation is exposed to cooler air at 30 °C with h = 60 W/m².°C. Calculate the heat loss from the tube to the air for 10 m of the tube and the temperature drop in the insulation layer.

The thermal conductivities of human tissues vary greatly. Fat and skin have conductivities of about 0.20 W/m K and 0.020 W/m K, respectively, while other tissues inside the body have conductivities of about 0.50 W/m K. Assume that between the core region of the body and the skin sin face lies a skin layer of 1.0 mm, fat layer of 0.50 cm, and 3.2 cm of other tissues. (a) Find the R-factor for each of these layers, and the equivalent R-factor for all layers taken together, retaining two digits. (b) Find the rate of energy loss when the core temperature is 37C and the exterior temperature is 0C. Assume that both a protective layer of clothing and an insulating layer of unmoving air a absent, and a body area of 2.0 m2.
An aluminum bar has a cross-section that is 4.31 cm by 7.32 cm and is 2.38 m long. Aluminum has a thermal conductivity of 205 W/m K. If the aluminum bar is used to bridge between ice at 0 °C and boiling water at 100 °C, what is the rate of heat transfer (in W) along the bar?

The air temperature above coastal areas is profoundly influenced by the large specific heat of water. One reason is that the energy released when 1 cubic meter of water cools by 1.0°C will raise the temperature of an enormously larger volume of air by 1.0°C. Estimate that volume of air. The specific heat of air is approximately 1.0 kJ/kg ? °C. Take the density of air to be 1.3 kg/m3.
While swimming, conduction can play a big role in heat loss from the body. The body of one swimmer has a total surface area of 1.80 m2 and an average thickness of 1.60 mm. The skin's thermal conductivity is 0.370 W/m-K. If the water's temperature is 20.0°C, and the blood reaching the inner surface of the skin is at 37.0°C, what is the rate of energy loss for that person through conduction?
Steam in a heating system flows through tubes whose outer diameter is 3 cm and whose walls are maintained at a temperature of 120°C. Circular aluminum alloy fins (k = 180 W/m·K) of outer diameter 6 cm and constant thickness t = 2 mm are attached to the tube. The space between the fins is 3 mm, and thus there are 200 fins per meter length of the tube. Heat is transferred to the surrounding air at 25°C, with a combined heat transfer coefficient of 60 W/m2·K. Determine the increase in heat transfer from the tube per meter of its length as a result of adding fins.

Hot oil is to be cooled by water in a one-shell-pass and eight-tube-passes heat exchanger. The tubes are thin-walled and are made of copper with an internal diameter of 1.4 cm. The length of each tube pass in the heat exchanger is 5 m, and the overall heat transfer coefficient is 310 W/m2?K. Water flows through the tubes at a rate of 0.2 kg/s, and the oil through the shell at a rate of 0.3 kg/s. The water and the oil enter at temperatures of 20°C and 150°C, respectively. Determine the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger and the outlet temperatures of the water and the oil.
