Concept explainers

Conduction and Convection

When energy travels from one object to another it is said to have undergone heat transfer. Heat transfer is nothing but the transfer of thermal energy or internal energy from one thing to another, like e.g., when a vessel with water, kept on top of a burner, heats up because of the flame underneath it.

A mild-steel cylindrical billet 25 cm in diameter is to be raised to a minimum temperature of 760C by passing it through a 6-m long strip-type furnace. If the furnace gases are at 1538C and the overall heat transfer coefficient on the outside of the billet is 68W/m2K, determine the maximum speed at which a continuous billet entering at 204C can travel through the furnace.
It is well known that the power consumed by a compressor can be reduced by cooling the gas during compression. Inspired by this, somebody proposes to cool the liquid as it flows through a pump, in order to reduce the power consumption of the pump. Would you support this proposal? Explain.
The facility has several 7000 Btu/h air conditioners in storage that can be installed to meet the additional cooling requirements. Assuming a usage factor of 0.4 (i.e., only 40 percent of the rated power will be consumed at any given time) and additional occupancy of seven people, each generating heat at a rate of 100 W, determine how many of these air conditioners need to be installed in the room.

It is common knowledge that the temperature of air rises as it is compressed. An inventor thought about using this high-temperature air to heat buildings. He used a compressor driven by an electric motor. The inventor claims that the compressed hot-air system is 25 percent more efficient than a resistance heating system that provides an equivalent amount of heating. Is this claim valid, or is this just another perpetualmotion machine? Explain.
