A common room at a facility is used by personnel for food consumption and resting (Fig. 2). An air conditioning system is required for providing comfortable temperature of 23°C. You are asked to select the room dimensions (X= 10m, Y= 2.4m and Z= 15m) and design a split air conditioning system suitable to meet the requirements for climatic conditions of a humid subtropical climate with long-term annual average high temperature of 26.4°C and minimum low of 16°C. The room can accommodate up to 6 – 12 staff members. The following kitchen appliances are used in the room: coffee machine, 2 microwaves, cooktop and dishwasher.

3.9 The heat transfer coefficients for the flow of 26.6°C air over a sphere of 1.25 cm in diameter are measured by observing the temperature-time history of a copper ball the same dimension. The temperature of the copper ball was measured by two thermocouples, one located in the center and the other near the surface. The two thermocouples registered, within the accuracy of the recording instruments, the same temperature at any given instant. In one test run, the initial temperature of the ball was 66°C, and the temperature decreased by 7°C in 1.15 min. Calculate the heat transfer coefficient for this case.
You are tasked to design a cooling system for an ice rink. A standard ice rink has surface area ofArink = 1580 m2 . In this design, a technologically advanced solid state thermoelectric generatingcooling plate is placed in between concrete slabs.

solve step by step and correctly. A family enters a winter vacation cabin has been unheated for such a long time the interior temperature is the same as the outside temperature (00C). The cabin consists of a single room of floor area 4m by 4m and height 3m. The room contains one 2kW electric heater. Assuming that the room is perfectly airtight and that all the heat from the electric heater is absorbed by the air, none escaping through the walls or being absorbed by the furnishing, how long after the heater is turned on will the temperature reach the comfort level of 240C.
A vertical cylinder 6 ft tall and 1 ft in diameter might be used to approximate a man for heat-transfer purposes. Suppose the surface temperature of the cylinder is 78°F, h=2 Btu/h · ft2 . °F, the surface emissivity is 0.9, and the cylinder is placed in a large room where the air temperature is 68°F and the wall temperature is 45°F. Calculate the heat lost from the cylinder. Repeat for a wall temperature of 80°F. What do you conclude from these calculations?

After the sinking of RMS Titanic, US operated the International Ice patrol with the purpose of monitoring the presence and movements of icebergs in the Atlantic and Arctic oceans. Once, they observed a unique tabular iceberg in a form of a rectangle (250 km x 50 km x 300 m). How many years would it take to melt the iceberg solely by heat from the sun if the ice absorbs a mean of 98 J/m2 -s, 12.5 hrs per day? Note: the exposed area for heating is 250 km x 50 km and the density is 920 kg/m3 . This is my solution.

You are designing a 3m x 3m floor with radiant heating. The floor has 12 parallel pex pipes (k = 40 W/mK) of L = 3m, OD = 25mm and ID = 20mm. Hot water (TInfintiy 1 = 90oC, h = 200 W/m2K) runs through the pipes continuously. The surface below the pipes is perfectly insulated. Above the pipes, there is a 3mm layer of bonding material (? = 12 W/mK) and a 9mm layer of tile (k = 2 W/mK). Above the tile, there is air (TInfinity 2 = 25oC, h = 20 W/m2K). Properties of Air: k = 0.025 W/mK, Pr = 0.72, v = 1.847 x 10−5, u = 16.84 x 10−6, p = 1.2 kg/m3, B = 1/Tf (ideal gas), Hint: Assume that the “layer” of pipe starts at the center point (e.g. for conduction purposes, the pipe is OD divided by 2 thick). For convection, consider the entire pipe surface. a) What is the total heat rate entering the room above the floor? b) What is the temperature of the top of the tile?
