Chapter 13, Problem 13.90P

A cylindrical furnace for heal-treating materials in a spacecraft environment has a 90-mm diameter and an overall length of 180 mm. Healing elements in the 135-mm-long section (1) maintain a refractory lining of ε 1 = 0.8 at 800°C. The linings for the bottom (2) and upper (3) sections are made of the same refractory material, but are insulated.

A flat-plate collector with one glass cover is placed in horizontal. The absorber plate temperature is 95 oC and its emittance is 0,12. The glass cover temperature is 45 oC, and the (glass) cover has an emittance of 0.85. The plate-cover spacing is 15 mm. The ambient and surrounding temperature are equal at 25 oC. The wind velocity is 20 km/hour. If solar radiation is 850 W/m2 , and the plate absorptivity is 95%, calculate over all heat transfer coefficient losses and the useful energy (W/m2 ). ----- s

A radiation shield that has the same emissivity 3 on both sides is placed between two large parallel plates, which are maintained at uniform temperatures of T1 = 650 K and T2 = 400 K and have emissivities of E1 = 0.6 and E2 = 0.9, respectively. Determine the emissivity of the radiation shield if the radiation heat transfer between the plates is to be reduced to 15 percent of that without the radiation shield

A one-dimensional plane wall is exposed to convective and radiative conditions at x = 0. The ambient and surrounding temperatures are T = 15C and Tsur = 80C, respectively. The convection heat transfer coefficient is h = 40 W/(m2K) and the absorptivity of the exposed surface is  = 0.8. Determine the convective and radiative heat fluxes to the wall at x = 0 in W/m2, if the wall surface temperature is 24C. Assume the exposed wall surface is gray (meaning  = ) and the surroundings are much larger than the wall surface.
