To determine the thermal conductivity of a structural material, a large 15-cm-thick slab of the material is subjected to a uniform heat flux of 2500 W/m2 while thermocouples embedded in the wall at 2.5 cm. intervals are read over a period of time. After the system had reached equilibrium, an operator recorded the thermocouple readings shown below for two different environmental conditions: Distance from the Surface (cm) Temperature (C) Test 1 0 40 5 65 10 97 15 132 Test 2 0 95 5 130 10 168 15 208 From these data, determine an approximate expression for the thermal conductivity as a function of temperature between 40 and 208C.
2.30 An electrical heater capable of generating 10,000 W is to be designed. The heating element is to be a stainless steel wire having an electrical resistivity of ohm-centimeter. The operating temperature of the stainless steel is to be no more than 1260°C. The heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is expected to be no less than in a medium whose maximum temperature is 93°C. A transformer capable of delivering current at 9 and 12 V is available. Determine a suitable size for the wire, the current required, and discuss what effect a reduction in the heat transfer coefficient would have. (Hint: Demonstrate first that the temperature drop between the center and the surface of the wire is independent of the wire diameter, and determine its value.)
A manufacturer in the United States wants to sell a refrigeration system to a customer in Germany. The standard measure of refrigeration capacity used in the United States is the ton (T); a 1 T capacity means that the unit is capable of making about 1 T of ice per day or has a heat removal rate of 12,00 Btu/h. The capacity of the American system is to be guaranteed at 3 T. What is this guarantee in SI units?
R Value: Wall: 0.961m2k/w Floor: 0.676m2k/w Roof: 0.7465m2k/w In a table format show with calculations and research how much money you can save by installing a 115mm layer of insulation (R2.9) in your walls, floor and ceiling over a 5 and 10 year period. Consider the capital costs. Hint: State the current R value of each component. Convert to U value. Calculate new R value of each component (walls, floor and ceiling). Convert to U value. Use Q(W)=A*(change in U)*temperature change. Determine price for installation of new insulation. Determine price saved based on less heat loss through each component separately, then add all values together, and calculate per 5 years and per 10 years. Present all of this information in a table. You do not need to draw any diagrams, simply add the R value in series with your current components R values. Assume the energy cost is 25 cents kWh
