A spherical interplanetary probe of 0.5 m diameter contains electronics that dissipate 150 W. If the probe surface has an emissivity of 0.9 and the probe does not receive radiation from other surfaces, as, for example, from the sun, what is its surface temperature?
A horizontal steam pipe with an outside diameter of 60.0 mm passes through a large room whose walls are at a temperature of 298 K. The outer surface of the pipe wall has a surface temperature of 443 K and an emissivity of 0.8. The air temperature in the room is 303 K. Calculate the rate of heat loss per unit length of the pipe by radiation and natural convection.
2. A heater is a thin vertical panel 1.0m long and 0.7m high and is used in a warehouse to keep workers warm.
The heater has air circulating on each side. Assume the maximum temperature of the panel is 60°C
(already above the board line that is safe for human hands to touch briefly without getting hurt). Assume
the room air temperature is 18°C but the warehouse wall temperature is 5°C. Model the surface with an
emittance of 0.9 and Vair = 1.57x105 m²/s.
a. Determine the maximum power rating for the heater.
b.
Now if you run the heat by standing on its side (it will be 1.0 m high and 0.7 m long), determine
the surface temperature.
c.
Compare case a and b and explain any differences you see.
