Chapter 19, Problem 25P
Two lightbulbs have cylindrical filaments much greater in length than in diameter. The evacuated bulbs are identical except that one operates at a filament temperature of 2 100°C and the other operates at 2 000°C. (a) Find the ratio of the power emitted by the hotter lightbulb to that emitted by the cooler lightbulb. (b) With the bulbs operating at the same respective temperatures, the cooler lightbulb is to be altered by making its filament thicker so that it emits the same power as the hotter one. By what factor should the radius of this filament be increased?

Consider a 6-in * 8-in epoxy glass laminate (k = 0.10 Btu/h·ft·°F) whose thickness is 0.05 in. In order to reduce the thermal resistance across its thickness, cylindrical copper fillings (k = 223 Btu/h·ft·°F) of 0.02 in diameter are to be planted throughout the board, with a center-to-center distance of 0.06 in. Determine the new value of the thermal resistance of the epoxy board for heat conduction across its thickness as a result of this modification.
Light bulb 1 operates with a filament temperature of 2900 K, whereas light bulb 2 has a filament temperature of 2000 K. Both filaments have the same emissivity, and both bulbs radiate the same power. Find the ratio A1/A2 of the filament areas of the bulbs.
Two rooms, each a cube 4.1 m per side, share a 13-cm-thick brick wall. Because of a number of 100-W lightbulbs in one room, the air is at 29 ∘C, while in the other room it is at 8.0 ∘CHow many of the 100-W bulbs are needed to maintain the temperature difference across the wall?

An aluminum rod 0.500 m in length and with a cross-sectional area of 2.50 cm2 is inserted into a thermally insulated vessel containing liquid helium at 4.20 K. The rod is initially at 300 K. (a) If one-half of the rod is inserted into the helium, how many liters of helium boil off by the time the inserted half cools to 4.20 K? Assume the upper half does not yet cool. (b) If the circular surface of the upper end of the rod is maintained at 300 K, what is the approximate boil-off rate of liquid helium in liters per second after the lower half has reached 4.20 K? (Aluminum has thermal conductivity of 3 100 W/m K at 4.20 K; ignore its temperature variation. The density of liquid helium is 125 kg/m3.)

A 2.1-m-long, 0.2-cm-diameter electrical wire extends across a room that is maintained at 20°C. Heat is generated in the wire as a result of resistance heating, and the surface temperature of the wire is measured to be 180°C in steady operation. Also, the voltage drop and electric current through the wire are measured to be 110 V and 3 A, respectively. Disregarding any heat transfer by radiation, determine the convection heat transfer coefficient for heat transfer between the outer surface of the wire and the air in the room.

A thin electronic component with a surface area of 950 cm2 is cooled by having a heat sink attached on its top surface. The thermal contact conductance of the interface between the electronic component and the heat sink is 25,000 W/m2∙K.
