Consider a cold aluminum canned drink that is initially at a uniform temperature of 4°C. The can is 12.5 cm high and has a diameter of 6 cm. If the combined convection/radiation heat transfer coefficient between the can and the surrounding air at 25°C is 10 W/m2 · °C, determine how long it will take for the average temperature of the drink to rise to 15°C. In an effort to slow down the warming of the cold drink, a person puts the can in a perfectly fitting 1-cm-thick cylindrical rubber insulator (k = 0.13 W/m · °C). Now how long will it take for the average temperature of the drink to rise to 15°C? Assume the top of the can is not covered.
Consider a 1.2-m-high and 2-m-wide double-pane window consisting of two 0.0023-m-thick layers of glass (k = 0.78 W/m·K) separated by a 12-mm-wide vacuum space. Take the convection heat transfer coefficients on the inner and outer surfaces of the window to be h1 = 10 W/m2·K and h2 = 25 W/m2·K, and disregard any heat transfer by radiation. Assume that the space between the two glass layers is evacuated.Determine the steady rate of heat transfer (in W) through the glass window. The room is maintained at 24°C while the temperature of the outdoors is –5°C. (Radiation in outer side of the double-pane window should be disregarded but in the inner part, the only mechanism of heat transfer in vacuum is by radiation. Emissivity for glass is around 1, and the temperature of inner surfaces of the double-pane window should be assumed to be 5 and 15 'C.)
