Question
The main body of plenum is a steel vessel of diameter 0.1meters has two semicircle domed ends. During
operation is will contain mix of fuel and air at approximately 250OC. The wall of the vessel is 0.03meters thick and
the plenum is 0.45meters long.
Estimate the rate of heat loss from the vessel when the outside air temperature is 45OC.
The thermal conductivity of steel is 45 W/m K and the surface heat transfer coefficient on the air side is 8
W/m2
. On the inside it is 65W/m2
.
If it was possible to clad the plenum calculate the reduction in the rate of heat loss. Assume the lagging
would be 5mm thick and has a thermal conductivity of 0.05 W/m.
