A steel tube with 6 cm ID, 8.2 cm OD and k=18 W/m-C is covered with an insulative covering of thickness 3 cm and k = 0.3 W/m-C . A hot gas at 330 C with h = 400 W/m^2-C flows inside the tube. The outer surface of the insulation is exposed to cooler air at 28 C with h = 60 W/m^2-C. Calculate the heat loss from the tube to the air for 12 m of the tube and the temperature drops resulting from the thermal resistances of the hot gas flow, the steel tube, the insulation layer and the outside air.
a 50cm diameter pipeline in the arctic carries hot oil where outer surface is maintained at 30C and is exposed to a surrounding temperature of -1x10^0 C. a special powder insulation 5cm thick surrounds the pipe and has a thermal conductivity of 7mW/mC. the convection heat transfer coefficient on the outside of the pipe is 9W/m^2C. estimate the energy loss from the pipe per meter of lenght.
Finned heat sinks are used to keep computer chips in an acceptable temperature range. The heat sink base is 53 mm x 57 mm, and the maximum allowable chip temperature is 75 C. An array of 54 aluminum fins (k = 237 W/m*K) which have a square cross-section (3 mm x 3 mm) are attached to the heat sink. The length of each fin is 30 mm. The cooling air supplied to the heat sink is 25 C. If the convection heat transfer coefficient is 125 W/m2*K, what is the heat transfer rate (in W) from the heat sink, assuming adiabatic fin tips? (Hint: heat transfer does not solely occur from the fins.)
