Thermal jackets are typically put on cryogenic storage tanks to minimize the heat transfer gains from the surroundings. Consider a cylinder container that is 1.5 m long made from steel (k = 750 W/m.K) with an inner diameter of 0.5 m and outer diameter of 0.7 m. If the liquefied natural gas (LNG) inside the cylinder is maintained at 90 K, ambient conditions are Tamb = 20 °C, h = 7 W/m2 .K.

You are asked to design a metal hot dog holder for roasting hot dogs over an opencampfire. The holder is to be designed such that while the end holding the hot dogbecomes cherry red (1400oF), the other end can still be held without using aninsulated handle or glove (~95oF). Design it such that it can be used even on awarm, still day, Tf = 90oF (Assume the convective heat transfer coefficient, h, fora horizontal cylinder is uniform over the whole cylinder and equal to 4.0Btu/hrft2oF)
Question 1:A glass window of width W = 1 m and height H = 2 m is 5 mm thick and has a thermal conductivity of kg=1.4 W/m.K. If the inner and outer surface temperatures of the glass are 15oC and -20oC, respectively, ona cold winter day, what is the rate of heat loss throughthe glass? To reduce heat loss through windows, it iscustomary to use a double pane construction in whichadjoining panes are separated by an air space. If thespacing is 10 mm and the glass surfaces in contact withthe air have temperatures of (last two digit of your Registration number) oC and -15oC, what isthe rate of heat loss from a 1 m x 2 m window? Thethermal conductivity of air is ka=0.024 W/m.K.
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.

A hot fluid (kfluid = 0.72 W/m∙K) is flowing as a laminar fully-developed flow inside a pipe with an inner diameter of 35 mm and a wall thickness of 5 mm. The pipe is 10 m long and the outer surface is exposed to air at 10°C. The average temperature difference between the hot fluid and the pipe inner surface is ΔTavg = 10°C, and the inner and outer surface temperatures are constant. Determine the outer surface temperature of the pipe. Evaluate the air properties at 50°C. Is this a good assumption? i saw an answer on this site but I don't get why in the inner heat transfer coefficient he didn't calculate nustle number he just used 3.66 can you please clarify
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.

An electric resistance space heater is designed such that it resembles a rectangular box 50 cm high, 80 cm long, and 15 cm wide filled with 45 kg of oil. The heater is to be placed against a wall, and thus heat transfer from its back surface is negligible. The surface temperature of the heater is not to exceed 75°C in a room at 25°C for safety considerations. Disregarding heat transfer from the bottom and top surfaces of the heater in anticipation that the top surface will be used as a shelf, determine the power rating of the heater in W. Take the emissivity of the outer surface of the heater to be 0.8 and the average temperature of the ceiling and wall surfaces to be the same as the room air temperature. Also, determine how long it will take for the heater to reach steady operation when it is first turned on (i.e., for the oil temperature to rise from 25°C to 75°C). State your assumptions in the calculations.
