Question
In a production facility, 1.2-in-thick, 2-ft *
2-ft square brass plates (r = 532.5 lbm/ft3 and cp =
0.091 Btu/lbmF) that are initially at a uniform temperature
of 75F are heated by passing them through an oven
at 1300F at a rate of 450 per minute. If the plates remain in the oven until their average temperature rises to 1000F,
determine (a) the rate of
furnace and (b) the rate of entropy generation associated
with this heat transfer process.

- The burner on an electric stove has a power output of 2.0 kWkW. A 780 gg stainless steel tea kettle is filled with 20∘C∘C water and placed on the already hot burner. f it takes 3.3 minmin for the water to reach a boil, what volume of water, in cm3cm3, was in the kettle? Stainless steel is mostly iron, so you can assume its specific heat is that of iron. Express your answer using two significant figures.arrow_forwardIn some countries, liquid nitrogen is used on dairy trucks instead of mechanical refrigerators. A 3.00-hour delivery trip requires 170 L of liquid nitrogen, which has a density of 808 kg/m3. (a)Calculate the heat needed in kilocalories to evaporate this amount of liquid nitrogen and raise its temperature to 2.50°C. (You must use cp, and you can assume it is constant over the temperature range.)

- In this problem you will estimate the heat lost by a typical house, assuming that the temperature inside is Tin = 20°C and the temperature outside is Tout = 0°C. The walls and uppermost ceiling of a typical house are supported by 2 x 6-inch wooden beams (kwood = 0.12 W/(mK)) with fiberglass insulation (kins = 0.04 W/(mK)) in between. The true depth of the beams is actually 5.625 %3D %3D %3D inches, but we will take the thickness of the walls and ceiling to be Lwall = 18 cm to allow for the interior and exterior covering. Assume that the house is a cube of length L = 9.0 m on a side. Assume that the roof has very high conductivity, so that the air in the attic is at the same temperature as the outside air. Ignore heat loss through the ground. The effective thermal conductivity of the wall (or ceiling) keff , is the area-weighted average of the thermal conductivities of the wooden beams and the fiberglass insulation that make up each of them. Allowing for the fact that the 2 x 6 beams…arrow_forward(a) Calculate the rate of heat conduction (in W) through house walls that are 11.5 cm thick and that have an average thermal conductivity twice that of glass wool.
