The amount of refrigeration power needed to maintain a frozen layer of ice in a typical skatingrink is massive. We establish a closed system about a thin, non-transparent, and solid layer of ice.In the diagram provided below, draw and identify the heat transfer processes in the ice rinkenvironment: Conduction, convection, and radiation. Briefly comment on features that wouldcontribute to lower refrigeration power needed to maintain the ice rink.
A microwave dinner has the instructions listed below. In this problem, you will explain how following the instructions affect the heat transfer into the meal. (The meal starts off frozen, and is covered with a thin piece of plastic "film" or covering when it is taken out of the box. The vegetables are separate from the beef and potatoes.) Instructions1. Cut slit in film over vegetables.2. Microwave on high 4 minutes3. Turn back film from beef and potatoes. Stir beef and potatoes. Replace film. Return tray to microwave oven4. Microwave on high 3 minutes.5. Let stand 2 minutes in microwave oven., Stir beef and potatoes.a. How does each of the steps above (cut slit in film, stir beef and potatoes, etc) affect the heat transfer to the food? Make sure to consider conduction, convection, and radiation where appropriate.
b. The instructions ask you to stir the beef and potatoes, but not the vegetables. From this, what can you tell about how each type of food receives and transfers heat?…
QUESTION 6
A simple solar collector in Figure Q1 is built by placing a 5 cm diameter clear plastic tube around a
garden hose whose outer diameter is 1.6 cm. The hose is painted black to maximize solar absorption,
and some plastic rings are used to keep the spacing between the hose and the clear plastic cover
constant. During a clear day, the temperature of the hose is measured to be 65 °C, while the ambient
air temperature is 26 °C. Determine the clear plastic tube temperature and the rate of heat loss from the
water in the hose per meter of its length by natural convection.

- Determine the power requirement of a soldering iron in which the tip is maintained at 400C. The tip is a cylinder 3 mm in diameter and 10 mm long. The surrounding air temperature is 20C, and the average convection heat transfer coefficient over the tip is 20W/m2K. The tip is highly polished initially, giving it a very low emittance.arrow_forwardRepeat Problem 1.35 but assume that instead of surface temperatures, the given temperatures are those of the air on the left and right sides of the wall and that the convection heat transfer coefficients on the left and right surfaces are 6 and 10W/m2K, respectively.arrow_forward1.15 A thermocouple (0.8-mm-diameter wire) used to measure the temperature of the quiescent gas in a furnace gives a reading of . It is known, however, that the rate of radiant heat flow per meter length from the hotter furnace walls to the thermocouple wire is 1.1 W/m and the convection heat transfer coefficient between the wire and the gas is K. With this information, estimate the true gas temperature. State your assumptions and indicate the equations used.arrow_forward
- 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.arrow_forwardMicrowave ovens operate by rapidly aligning and reversing water molecules within the food, resulting in volumetric energy generation and, in turn, cooking of the food. When the food is initially frozen, however, the water molecules do not readily oscillate in response to the microwaves, and the volumetric generation rates are between one and two orders of magnitude lower than if the water were in liquid form. (Microwave power that is not absorbed in the food is reflected back to the microwave generator, where it must be dissipated in the form of heat to prevent damage to the generator.) (a) Consider a frozen, 0.7-kg spherical piece of ground beef at an initial temperature of T₁ = -20°C placed in a microwave oven with To = 30°C and h = 15 W/m².K. Determine how long, in min, it will take the beef to reach a uniform temperature of T = 0°C, with all the water in the form of ice. Assume the properties of the beef are the same as ice, and assume 3% of the oven power (P = 1 kW total) is…arrow_forwardRadiation 3. Under conditions for which the same room temperature is maintained by a heating or cooling system, it is not uncommon for a person to feel chilled in the winter but comfortable in the summer. Provide a plausible explanation for this situation (with supporting calculations) by considering a room whose air temperature is maintained at 20 C throughout the year, while the walls of the room are nominally at 27 °C and 14 °C in the summer and winter, respectively. The exposed surface of a person in the room may be assumed to be at a temperature of 32 °C throughout the year and to have an emissivity of 0.90. The coefficient associated with heat transfer by natural convection between the person and the room air is approximately 2 W/m²K.arrow_forward
- Radiative Heat Transfer. Two plane disks each 1.25 m in diameter are parallel and directly opposed to each other. They are separated by a distance of 0.5 m. Disk 1 is heated by electrical resistance to 833.3 K. Both disks are insulated on all faces except the two faces directly opposed to each other. Assume that the surroundings emit no radiation and that the disks are in space. Calculate the temperature of disk 2 at steady state and also the electrical energy input to disk 1. Hint: The fraction of heat lost from area 1 to space is (1 – F12).arrow_forwardProblem 1: A rectangular (70mm Wide x 60mm Tall x 180mm long) air heater is used to heat 0.04m3 incoming air (Q from 25°C to 60°C. To increase the surface area, the cross-section is split into 6 rectangular channels using aluminum fins, as shown below. The fins are evenly spaced and 2mm thick. What must the average surface temperature of the fins be to sufficiently heat the air?arrow_forwardThe thermal boundary layer in heat transfer exists whenever there is a difference between the temperatures of the fluid and the outside environment. For fluid flow, how does a boundary layer form?A. Because common surfaces are not smooth, the flow is hindered, and boundary layers are formed.B. The disturbances on the streamlines in high Reynolds number flow produces boundary layer.C. The existence of walls or “boundaries” that keep the fluid inside (or outside) creates the boundary layer.D. Velocity profiles are inherently approaching no-slip condition because of the resistance of the walls.arrow_forward
