A thin metal plate is insulated on the back and exposed to solar radiation on the front surface. The exposed surface of the plate has an absorptivity of 0.7 for solar radiation. If solar radiation is incident on the plate at a rate of 550 W/m2 and the surrounding air temperature is 10°C, determine the surface temperature of the plate when the heat loss by convection equals the solar energy absorbed by the plate. Take the convection heat transfer coefficient to be 25 W/m2·K, and disregard any heat loss by radiation.
The concrete slab of a basement is 11 m long and 8 m wide, and 0.20 m thick. During the winter, temperatures are
nominally 17°C and 10°C at the top and bottom surfaces, respectively. If the concrete has a thermal conductivity of 1.4
W/mK, what is the rate of heat loss through the slab? If the basement is heated by a gas furnace operation at an
efficiency of 90%, and natural gas is priced at $0.02. MJ, what is the daily cost of the heat loss.
Answer: QLOSS = 4.312 kW, COST = $8.28/day
Consider a person standing in a room at 20°C with an exposed surface area of 1.7 m2. The deep body
temperature of the human body is 37°C, and the thermal conductivity of the human tissue near the skin is
about 0.3 W/m K. The body is losing heat at a rate of 150 W by natural convection and radiation to the
surroundings. Taking the body temperature 0,5 cm beneath the skin to be 37°C, determine the skin
temperature of the person.

- A 95.0-kg block of ice at 0.00°C breaks off from a glacier, slides along the frictionless ice to the ground from a height of 2.43 m, and then slides along a horizontal surface consisting of gravel and dirt. Find how much of the mass of the ice is melted by the friction with the rough surface, assuming 75.0% of the internal energy generated stays in the ice. Latent heat of fusion (Lf) for water 333,700 J/kg.arrow_forwardA flat-plate solar collector is used to heat water by having water flow through tubes attached at the back of the thin solar absorber plate. The absorber plate has a surface area of 2 m2 with emissivity and absorptivity of 0.9. The surface temperature of the absorber is 35°C, and solar radiation is incident on the absorber at 500 W/m2 with a surrounding temperature of 0°C. Convection heat transfer coefficient at the absorber surface is 5 W/m2∙K, while the ambient temperature is 25°C. Net heat rate absorbed by the solar collector heats the water from an inlet temperature (Tin) to an outlet temperature (Tout). If the water flow rate is 5 g/s with a specific heat of 4.2 kJ/kg∙K, determine the temperature rise of the water.arrow_forwardThe loss of body heat via convection is described by which statement? The body gives off waves of heat from uncovered surfaces. An oscillating fan blows currents of cool air across the surface of a warm body. Body fluid in the form of perspiration is vaporized from the skin. The body transfers heat to an ice pack, causing the ice to melt.arrow_forward
- Humans are able to control their heat production rate and heat loss rate to maintain a nearly constant core temperature of Tcore=37°C under a wide range of environmental conditions. This process is called thermoregulation. From the perspective of calculating heat transfer between a human body and its surroundings, we focus on a layer of skin and fat, with its outer surface exposed to the environment and its inner surface at a temperature slightly less than the core temperature, Ti = 35° C. Temperature of surrounding air is 10°C. Consider a person with a skin/fat layer of thickness L= 3 mm and effective thermal conductivity k = 0.3 W/m.K and person has a surface area A= 1.8 m?. The person is dressed in a bathing suit with an extremely low thermal conductivity of 0.014 W/m K. The emissivity of the outer surface of wet suits is 0.95.

Because the car radiates heat off of a greater surface area, the car in-turn radiates off heat at a rate of 169 watts/m². If the car is considered a perfect absorber and emitter of radiative energy, what will the equilibrium temperature inside the car be? °Carrow_forwardAlligators and other reptiles don’t use enough metabolic energy to keep their body temperatures constant.
