Concept explainers
Experiments have been performed on the temperature distribution in a homogeneous long cylinder (0.1 m diameter, thermal conductivity of 0.2 W/m K) with uniform internal heat generation. By dimensional analysis, determine the relation between the steady-state temperature at the center of the cylinder

- 1.63 Liquid oxygen (LOX) for the space shuttle is stored at 90 K prior to launch in a spherical container 4 m in diameter. To reduce the loss of oxygen, the sphere is insulated with superinsulation developed at the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology's Cryogenic Division; the superinsulation has an effective thermal conductivity of 0.00012 W/m K. If the outside temperature is on the average and the LOX has a heat of vaporization of 213 J/g, calculate the thickness of insulation required to keep the LOX evaporation rate below 200 g/h.arrow_forward1.3 A furnace wall is to be constructed of brick having standard dimensions of Two kinds of material are available. One has a maximum usable temperature of 1040°C and a thermal conductivity of 1.7 W/(m K), and the other has a maximum temperature limit of 870°C and a thermal conductivity of 0.85 W/(m K). The bricks have the same cost and are laid in any manner, but we wish to design the most economical wall for a furnace with a temperature of 1040°C on the hot side and 200°C on the cold side. If the maximum amount of heat transfer permissible is 950 , determine the most economical arrangement using the available bricks.arrow_forwardHi, kindly solve this problem and show the solution.

- (a) Consider nodal configuration shown below. (a) Derive the finite-difference equations under steady-state conditions if the boundary is insulated. (b) Find the value of Tm,n if you know that Tm, n+1= 12 °C, Tm, n-1 = 8 °C, Tm-1, n = 10 °C, Ax = Ay = 10 mm, and k = = W 3 m. k .

Thankfully, science also has much to contribute in the kitchen as well as the laboratory. Let us consider the change in temperature of a common, 20-lb holiday fowl as it is cooked in a convection oven. To simplify the analysis, let's assume the bird can be modeled as a uniform sphere of radius 7.0 in. with a specific heat of 3.53 kJ/kg-K. Moreover, the turkey will be assumed to have a uniform temperature, T, throughout that will change with time as it is cooked according to the following relationship: 。 + (To - T∞)ept T(t) = T∞ + where To is the initial temperature of the turkey, T∞, is the oven temperature, V is the volume of the turkey, As is the surface area of the turkey, and h is the convection coefficient for the scenario which is 11.3 W/m²-K. If the oven is set to 325 °F and the initial temperature of the…arrow_forward
- I want to answer all the questions by handwriting.arrow_forwardPlease I need solutions speed time pleasearrow_forwardA solid cylinder of radius R and length L is made from material with thermal conductivity 2. Heat is generated inside the cylinder at a rate S (energy per unit volume per unit time). (a) Neglecting conduction along the axis of the cylinder, find the steady-state temperature distribution in the cylinder, given that the surface temperature is Ts. (b) Consider a crude approximation of a mouse modeled as a cylinder of radius 1 cm and length 5 cm. If the ambient air temperature is 10°C and the internal rate of heat generation in the animal is 10-³ W/cm³, find the skin temperature (Ts) for the mouse. The external heat-transfer coefficient is h = 0.2 W/m².K. (You can neglect conduction along the axis of the mouse, as in part a.)arrow_forward
