Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.9P

Heat is transferred at a rate of 0.1 kW through glass wool insulation ( density =  100  kg/m 3 ) with a 5-cm thickness and 2 -m 2 area. If the hot surface is at 70°C, determine the temperature of the cooler surface.

Consider a person standing in a breezy room at 20°C. Determine the total rate of heat transfer from this person if the exposed surface area and the average outer surface temperature of the person are 1.6 m2 and 29°C, respectively, and the convection heat transfer coefficient is 6 W/m2 ·°C (Fig. 2–75).
When is the heat transfer through a fluid conduction and when is it convection? For which case is the rate of heat transfer higher? How does the convection heat transfer differ from the thermal conductivity of the fluid?
An average man has a body surface area of 1.8 m2  and a skin temperature of 330C. The convective heat transfer coefficient for a clothed person walking in still air is expressed as  h= 8.6V0.53 where V is the walking velocity in m/s. Assuming the average surface temperature of the clothed person to be 300C, determine the rate of heat lost by convection from an average man walking in still air at 100C at a walking velocity of 1.2 m/s.

  • The blades of a wind turbine turn a large shaft at a relatively slow speed. The rotational speed is increased by a gearbox that has an efficiency of 0.93. In turn, the gearbox output shaft drives an electric generator with an efficiency of 0.95. The cylindrical nacelle, which houses the gearbox, generator, and associated equipment, is of length L = 6 m and diameter D = 3 m. If the turbine produces P = 2.5 MW of electrical power, and the air and surroundings temperatures are T = 25 oC and Tsur = 20 oC, respectively, determine the minimum possible operating temperature inside the nacelle. The emissivity of the nacelle is 0.83, and the convective heat transfer coefficient is h = 35 W/m2 .K. The surface of the nacelle that is adjacent to the blade hub can be considered to be adiabatic, and solar irradiation may be neglected.           Use Fin or N number of fins to reduce the Ts of the nacelle less than 143 oC
    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.
    what are the different modes of heat transfer? Explain transfer of heat by convection process?
