A transformer is to be cooled via forced air convection. To increase the effectiveness of thecooling, Alloy 1095 cast aluminum fins are attached to the top of the transformer overwhich air is blown (negligible thermal contact resistance between the transformer and thefins). The fins are 2 cm thick and 7 cm long and span the entire length of the transformer,and the transformer is 7 cm wide and 10 cm long. Air leaves the cooling fan at 25°C .a) Decide how to model the fins before performing any real analysis. Youare willing to accept some error in your analysis and so you will either model thefins as having adiabatic tips or being infinitely long. You expect the average convectioncoefficient over the heat transfer surfaces for this system to be around 50 W m2– K⁄ .Which tip condition should you use for the fins in your analysis? b) Modeling the transformer as being isothermal, determine the average convectioncoefficient over the heat transfer surfaces. Account for heat transfer from the…
The rear window of an automobile is defogged by pass- ing warm air over its inner surface. (a) If the warm air is at T ,i 40 C and the correspond- ing convection coefficient is hi 30 W/m2 K, what are the inner and outer surface temperatures of 4-mm-thick window glass, if the outside ambient air temperature is T ,o 10 C and the associated con- vection coefficient is ho 65 W/m2 K? In practice T ,o and ho vary according to weather conditions and car speed. For values of ho 2, 65, and 100 W/m2 K, compute and plot the inner and outer surface temperatures as a function of T ,o for –30 T ,o 0 C.
