Question
(a) If the cost of producing the hot water is $0.10 per kWh, what is the representative daily cost
of heat loss from an uninsulated pipe to the air per meter of pipe length? The convection
resistance associated with water flow in the pipe may be neglected.
(b) Determine the savings associated with application of a 10-mm-thick coating of urethane
insulation (k = 0.026 W/m-K) to the outer surface of the pipe.

- You are asked to design a metal hot dog holder for roasting hot dogs over an opencampfire. The holder is to be designed such that while the end holding the hot dogbecomes cherry red (1400oF), the other end can still be held without using aninsulated handle or glove (~95oF). Design it such that it can be used even on awarm, still day, Tf = 90oF (Assume the convective heat transfer coefficient, h, fora horizontal cylinder is uniform over the whole cylinder and equal to 4.0Btu/hrft2oF)arrow_forwardSteam condenses at 100°C on the outer surface of a pipe with a thermal conductivity of 180 J/ms°C. The surface heat transfer coefficient of the water flowing in the pipe is 4000 J/m²s°C, and the heat transfer coefficient created by the steam condensing outside is 10000 J/m²s°C. The length of the pipe is 5 m and the thread diameter is 25 mm. Since the pipe thickness is 1 mm, calculate the total heat transfer coefficient and the rate of heat transfer from the condensed steam to the water at 15 °Carrow_forwardi need the answer quicklyarrow_forward
- The 0.5 m x 1.2 m wall of an industrial furnace is constructed from L = 0.15-m-thick fireclay brick having a thermal conductivity of 1.7 W/m-K. The temperature distribution, at an instant in time, is T(x) = a + bxwhere a = 1400 K and b = -950 K/m. Determine the heat fluxes, q, and heat rates, q,, atx = 0 and.x = L, in W/m2 and W respectively. Do steady-state conditions exist? i W/m? i W/m?
