A thin flat plate is hanging on a string such that its top surface is exposed to a solar radiant flux of 800 W/m2. Both its top surface and bottom surface are exposed to a combined convection-radiation environment with combined h = 21.1 W/m²K. What is the temperature of the plate under steady state conditions if the ambient air temperature is 39°C? Express your answer in °C.

A cooling system is to be designed for a food storage warehouse for keeping perishable foods cool prior to transportation to grocery stores. The warehouse has an effective surface area of 1860 m2 exposed to an ambient air temperature of 32C. The warehouse wall insulation (k=0.17W/(mK)) is 7.5 cm thick. Determine the rate at which heat must be removed (W) from the warehouse to maintain the food at 4C.

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.Consider a room whose air temperature is maintained at 18ºC throughout the year, while the walls of the room are nominally at 24°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/m2·K. Calculate the following. a. heat flux due to convection in W / m^2 b. Heat flux due to radiation in the summer in W / m^2 c. Heat flux due to radiation in the winter in W / m^2
