2.30 An electrical heater capable of generating 10,000 W is to be designed. The heating element is to be a stainless steel wire having an electrical resistivity of ohm-centimeter. The operating temperature of the stainless steel is to be no more than 1260°C. The heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is expected to be no less than in a medium whose maximum temperature is 93°C. A transformer capable of delivering current at 9 and 12 V is available. Determine a suitable size for the wire, the current required, and discuss what effect a reduction in the heat transfer coefficient would have. (Hint: Demonstrate first that the temperature drop between the center and the surface of the wire is independent of the wire diameter, and determine its value.)

For your company you need to mass produce 20-cmx10-cm heat sinks to dissipate heat quickly from an equipment. After considering several other parameters, you have short-listed two possible designs: A. 72 straight pin fins made of an alloy (thermal conductivity 240 W/m-°C) that costs $9,000 per m³. Each pin is 4 cm long and 1-cm diameter. E.=3'18; $204 B. 64 straight rectangular fins made of another alloy (thermal conductivity 180 W/m.°C) that costs $12,000 per m³. Each pin is 4 cm long and has 2-cmx1-cm cross-section. Eo =7:94%$ 6·14 The convection coefficient of the operating condition is approximated as 15 W/m2.°c. Consider that the manufacturing cost is same for both designs but the material cost differs. Calculate and compare the cost and performance (in terms of heat transfer gains by the heat sinks) of the two heat sinks so that a decision can be made to select a design.
