Introduction to Heat Transfer
- The heat transfer coefficient for a gas flowing over a thin float plate 3-m long and 0.3-m wide varies with distance from the leading edge according to hc(x)=10x1/4Wm2K If the plate temperature is 170C and the gas temperature is 30C, calculate (a) the average heat transfer coefficient, (b) the rate of heat transfer between the plate and the gas, and (c) the local heat flux 2 m from the leading edge. Problem 1.18arrow_forwardAir at 4 °C is being carried within a metal cylindrical pipe to astorage room at a bioprocessing facility, where a heat-sensitive protein product must be stored until it is transferred to another facility. The outer diameter of the pipe is 400 mm, and the thickness of the pipe is 2 mm. The pipe is installed within a larger room where the room temperature is kept at 20°C. There is a layer of insulating material around the metal pipe. Thermal conductivity of the metal pipe is 60 W/m*K, whereas the thermal conductivity of the insulating material is 0.04 W/m*K. Heat gain by the air being transported occurs at a steady rate of 40 W. A while later, it becomes necessary to reduce the temperature of the flowing air down to 0 °C for another protein product. By how much (in percentages) should the insulation material thickness should increase in order to maintain this air temperature within the pipe? Assume the inner surface temperature of the metal pipe is equal to the air temperature in the…arrow_forwardThermal jackets are typically put on cryogenicstorage tanks to minimize the heat transfer gainsfrom the surroundings. Consider a cylindercontainer that is 1.5 m long made from steel (k = 750W/m.K) with an inner diameter of 0.5 m and outerdiameter of 0.7 m. If the liquefied natural gas (LNG)inside the cylinder is maintained at 90 K, ambientconditions are Tamb = 20 °C, h = 7 W/m2.K. What is the required insulationmaterial to maintain the outer temperature of that jacket of 15 °C? Usethe end of the book and write your assumption with the right value.(Take a maximum allowed jacket thickness of Lins = 7 cm)arrow_forward
- Thermodynamics problem. A membrane type electrical heater of 20,000 w/m? capacity is sandwiched between an Insulation of 25 mm thickness with thermal conductivity of 0.029 W/m-K and a metal plate with k = 12.6 W/m-K of thickness 15 mm. The convection coefficient is 150 W/m2-K. The surroundings are at 5°C. Determine the surface temperature of the heater and the flow on either side.arrow_forwardA composite plane wall consisting of materials, 1.5-in steel (k = 312 BTU-in/HR.ft2.0F) and 2-in aluminum (k = 1400 BTU-in/HR.ft2.0F), separates a hot gas at Ti = 2000F, hi = 2 BTU/HR.ft2.0F, from cold gas at To = 80 deg F, ho = 5. If the hot fluid is on the aluminum side, find: a) Transmittance, U; b) The heat through 100 sq. ft of the surface under steady state condition and c) The interface temperature at the junction of the metals.arrow_forwardA steel sphere (AISI 1010), 100 mm in diameter, is coated with a dielectric material layer of thickness 1.75 mm and thermal conductivity 0.04 W/m.K. The coated sphere is initially at a uniform temperature of 500°C and is suddenly quenched in a large oil bath for which T = 100°C and h = 3000 W/m².K. Estimate the time, in h, required for the coated sphere temperature to reach 150°C. Hint: Neglect the effect of energy storage in the dielectric material, since its thermal capacitance (pc)is small compared to that of the steel sphere. t = harrow_forward
