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

1.21 In an experimental set up in a laboratory, a long cylinder with a 5-cm diameter, and an electrical resistance heater inside its entire length is cooled with water flowing crosswise over the cylinder at and a velocity of 0.8 m/s. For these flow conditions, 20 kW/m of power is required to maintain a uniform temperature of at the surface of the cylinder. When water is not available, air at is used with a velocity of 10 m/s to maintain the same surface temperature. However, in this case, the cylinder surface heat dissipation rate is reduced to 400 W/m. Calculate the convection heat transfer coefficients for both water and air, and comment on the reason for the differences in the values.
