The air-conditioning system in a Chevrolet van for use in desert climates is to be sized. The system is to maintain an interior temperature of 20C when the van travels at 100 km/h through dry air at 30C at night. If the top of the van is idealized as a flat plate 6 m long and 2 m wide and the sides as flat plates 3 m tall and 6 m long, estimate the rate at which heat must be removed from the interior to maintain the specified

Partially-frozen ice cream is being placed in a package before completion of the freezing process. The package has dimensions of 8 cm by 10 cm by 20 cm and is placed in air- blast freezing with convective heat coefficient of 50 W/(m2 K) for freezing. The product temperature is -5°C when placed in the package, and the air temperature is -25°C. The product density is 700 kg/m3, the thermal conductivity (frozen) is 1.2 W/(m K), and the specific heat of the frozen product is 1.9 kJ/(kg K). If the latent heat to be removed during blast freezing is 100 kJ/kg, estimate the freezing time.
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.
