A hollow aluminum sphere, with an electrical heater in the center, is used in tests to determine the thermal conductivity of insulating materials. The inner and outer radii of the sphere are o.18 and o.21 m, respectively, and testing is done under steady-state conditions with the inner surface of the aluminum maintained at 250°C. In a particular test, a spherical shell of insulation is cast on the outer surface of the sphere to a thickness of o.15 m. The system is in a room for which the air temperature is 20°C and the convection coefficient at the outer surface of the insulation is 30 W/m2. K. If 80 W is dissipated by the heater under steady-state conditions, what is the thermal conductivity of the insulation?
An annealing furnace is at a temperature of 460 oC, where a water pool is used to cool the heated products. Each of the products is cylindrical, with a diameter of 25 mm and a length of 250 mm. Propagation of radiationassuming that the coefficient is 0.85, the amount of heat transfer that occurs when the product is submerged in the water poolcalculate.
