Chapter 8, Problem 8.10P

The immersed object shown in Figure 8.1.2e is steel and has a mass of 100 kg and a specific heat of cp= 500 J/kg • °C. Assume the thermal resistance is R = 0.09°C • s/J. The inital temperature of the object is 20° when it is dropped into a large bath of temperature 80°C. Obtain the expression for the temperature 77/) of the object after it is dropped into the bath.

Consider an experimental structure required to always have constant pressure. For this purpose, a collapsible compartment has been installed that expands and contracts to adjust the volume of air inside the structure for maintaining constant air pressure of 1 atm. Given the total volume of air inside the structure was 100,000 m' when the compartment was fully collapsed, solve the following: If a constant pressure is to be maintained while the temperature varies from 0°F to 150°F, find the volume of air that the compartment holds when it expands to the maximum. For the temperature transition mentioned above, find the change in internal energy undergone by the air in the structure. Also, find the work done by the compartment while it expands. Assume air to be an ideal gas.
Two large containers A and B of the same size are filled with different fluids. The fluids in containers A and B are maintained at 0° C and 100° C, respectively. A small metal bar, whose initial temperature is 100° C, is lowered into container A. After 1 minute the temperature of the bar is 90° C. After 2 minutes the bar is removed and instantly transferred to the other container. What is the temperature of the bar at the instant it is transferred?
5 Problem = How long should it take to boil an egg? Model the egg as a sphere with radius of 2.3 cm that has properties similar to water with a density of ρ 1000 kg/m³ and thermal conductivity of k = 0.606 Watts/(m.°C) and specific heat of c = 4182 J/(kg.° C). Suppose that an egg is fully cooked when the temperature at the center reaches 70° C. Initially the egg is taken out of the fridge at 4° C and placed in the boiling water at 100° C. Since the egg shell is very thin assume that it quickly reaches a temperature of 100° C. The protein in the egg effectively immobilizes the water so the heat conduction is purely conduction (no convection). Plot the temperature of the egg over time and use the data tooltip in MATLAB to make your conclusion on the time it takes to cook the egg in minutes. Figure 1: Image source: [Link]
