The temperature of a gas stream is to be measured by a thermocouple whose junction can be approximated as a 1.2-mm-diameter sphere. The properties of the junction are k = 35 W/m·K, r = 8500 kg/m3, and cp = 320 J/kg·K, and the heat transfer coefficient between the junction and the gas is h = 90 W/m2·K. Determine how long it will take for the thermocouple to read 99 percent of the initial temperature difference.
An average man has a body surface area of 1.8 m2 and a skin temperature of 33°C. The convection heat transfer coefficient for a clothed person walking in still air is expressed as h = 8.6V 0.53 for 0.5 < V < 2 m/s, where V is the walking velocity in m/s. Assuming the average surface temperature of the clothed person to be 30°C, determine the rate of heat loss from an average man walking in still air at 10°C by convection at a walking velocity of (a) 0.5 m/s, (b) 1.0 m/s, (c) 1.5 m/s, and (d) 2.0 m/s.
Consider a stainless steel spoon (k = 15 W/m·K) partially
immersed in boiling water at 95°C in a kitchen at 25°C. The
handle of the spoon has a cross section of 0.2cm x 1.2 cm, and
extends 18 cm in the air from the free surface of the water. If the
heat transfer coefficient at the exposed surfaces of the spoon
handle is 15 W/m2·°C, determine the temperature difference
across the exposed surface of the spoon handle. State your
assumptions.
