Two 0.69-m-diameter, 15-cm-long aluminum bars (k= 176 W/m-K) with ground surfaces are pressed against each other with a pressure of 20 atm. The bars are enclosed in an insulation sleeve and, thus, heat transfer from the lateral surfaces is negligible. The top and bottom surfaces of the two-bar system are maintained at temperatures of 150°C and 100°C, respectively. Use T = 22/7. Determine the rate of heat transfer (in W) along the cylinders under steady conditions. (You must provide an answer before moving on to the next part.)

During a visit to a plastic sheeting plant, it was observed that a 60-m-long section of a 2-in nominal (6.03-cm-outer-diameter) steam pipe was extended from one end of the plant to the other with no insulation on it. The temperature measurements at several locations revealed that the average temperature of the exposed surfaces of the steam pipe was 170°C, while the temperature of the surrounding air was 20°C. The outer surface of the pipe appeared to be oxidized, and its emissivity can be taken to be 0.7. Taking the temperature of the surrounding surfaces to be 20°C also, determine the rate of heat loss from the steam pipe. Steam is generated in a gas furnace that has an efficiency of 78 percent, and the plant pays $1.10 per therm (1 therm = 105,500 kJ) of natural gas. The plant operates 24 h a day 365 days a year, and thus 8760 h a year. Determine the annual cost of the heat losses from the steam pipe for this facility.
1. (a) Consider a room with a 1.8-m-high and 2.0-m-wide double-pane window consisting of two 4-mm-thick layers of glass separated by a 10-mm-wide stagnant air space. The convection heat transfer coefficients on the inner and outer surfaces of the window are 12 W/m2 K and 25 W/m2 K, respectively, while the average thermal conductivity of glass is 0.78 W/m K; and the air, 0.026 W/m K. If the room is maintained at 22 oC, the outside temperature is -4 oC and heat transfer due to radiation can be neglected, determine: (i) Draw the sketch and thermal resistance network; (ii) the total thermal resistance; (iii) the steady rate of heat transfer through this double-pane window; (iv) the temperature of the inner surface of the window.…
Consider a cold aluminum canned drink that is initially at a uniform temperature of 4°C. The can is 12.5 cm high and has a diameter of 6 cm. If the combined convection/radiation heat transfer coefficient between the can and the surrounding air at 25°C is 10 W/m2 · °C, determine how long it will take for the average temperature of the drink to rise to 15°C. In an effort to slow down the warming of the cold drink, a person puts the can in a perfectly fitting 1-cm-thick cylindrical rubber insulator (k = 0.13 W/m · °C). Now how long will it take for the average temperature of the drink to rise to 15°C? Assume the top of the can is not covered.
A 2 m X 1.5 m section of wall of an industrial furnace burning gas is not insulated, and the temperature at the outer surface of this section is measured to be 80oC. The temperature of the furnace room is 30oC, and the combined convection and radiation heat transfer coefficient at the surface of the outer furnace is 10 w/oC. It is proposed to insulate this section of the furnace wall with glass wool insulation (K=0.038 W/moC) in order to reduce the heat loss by 90 percent. Assuming the outer surface temperature of the section remains at about 80oC, determine i) the thickness of the insulation that is needed and ii) the outer surface temperature of the insulation after installation.

A 4-m-high and 6-m-wide wall consists of a long18-cm * 30-cm cross section of horizontal bricks (k =0.72 W/m·K) separated by 3-cm-thick plaster layers (k =0.22 W/m·K). There are also 2-cm-thick plaster layers on eachside of the wall, and a 2-cm-thick rigid foam (k = 0.026 W/m·K)on the inner side of the wall. The indoor and the outdoor temperaturesare 22°C and 24°C, and the convection heat transfercoefficients on the inner and the outer sides are h1 = 10 W/m2·Kand h2 = 20 W/m2·K, respectively. Assuming one-dimensionalheat transfer and disregarding radiation, determine the rate ofheat transfer through the wall.

A person puts a few apples into the freezer at 15°C cool them quickly for guestswho are about to arrive. Initially, the apples are at a uniform temperature of 20°C,and the heat transfer coefficient on the surfaces is 8 W/m2·K.
