Conduction and Convection

When energy travels from one object to another it is said to have undergone heat transfer. Heat transfer is nothing but the transfer of thermal energy or internal energy from one thing to another, like e.g., when a vessel with water, kept on top of a burner, heats up because of the flame underneath it.

2- The addition of aluminum fins has been suggested to increase the rate of heat dissipation from one side of an electronic device 1 m wide and 1 m tall. The fins are to be rectangular in cross section, 2.5 cm long and 0.25 cm thick. There are to be 100 fins per meter. The convective heat transfer coefficient, both for the wall and the fins, is estimated at 35 W/(m2 K). With this information, determine the percent increase in the rate of heat transfer of the finned wall compared to the bare wall. (take the case where the tip is exposed to convection) Ans(48 t= 2.5 mm 2.5 cm
At a temperature of 21.4°C the hole in a steel plate has an area of 8.80 x 10- m2. You heat the plate until the area of the hole increases to 8.97 x 10- m2, which allows a steel rod to just slip through this hole. What is the final temperature of the plate? The coefficient of linear expansion of steel is 12 × 10-0/°C.

A furnace wall is to be designed to transmit a maximum heat flux of 220 Btu/hr.ft of wall area. The inside and outside wall temperatures are to be 2200 • F and 320 ° F. Determine the most economical arrangement of bricks measuring (9 in x 4; in x 3 in). If they are made from materials one with ak of 0.44 Btu/hr. ft. ° F and maximum usable temperature of 1700 ° F and other with a k of 0.94 Btu/hr. ft. ° F and a maximum usable temperature of 2400 ° F. Bricks made of each material cost the same amount and may be laid in any manner (but bricks must remain intact, i.e., no partial bricks). After you answer the question, determine the percent increase in heat flux if there are two -in.-diameter steel bolts extending through the wall per square foot of wall are.
