- cylindrical fuel element for a gas-cooled nuclear reactor, the heat generation rate within the fuel element due to fission can be approximated by the relation: q(r) = q_0 [1 - (r/a)^2] W/m^3 where a is the radius of the fuel element and q_0 is constant. The boundary surface at r = a is maintained at a uniform temperature T_0. Assuming one-dimensional, steady-state heat flow, develop a relation for the temperature drop from the centerline to the surface of the fuel element. For radius a= 30mm, the thermal conductivity k = 10 W/m middot K and q_0 = 2 times 10^7 W/m^3, calculate the temperature drop from the centerline to the surface.arrow_forwardA 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.
