heat and mass transfer
An uninsulated steam pipe of 100-mm diameter is routed through a building whose walls and air are at 27°C. Pressurized steam maintains a pipe surface temperature of 147°C, and the coefficient associated with natural convection is h =10 W/m2.K. The surface emissivity is ɛ= 0.8. What is the rate of heat loss per unit length from the steam line?
A thermocouple junction of spherical form is to be used to measure the temperature of a gas stream. h = 400w/m^2 deg C; k(thermocouple junction) = 20 w/m deg C; cp = 400 J/kg deg C; and density = 8500 kg/m^3;Calculate the following:i. Junction diameter needed for the thermocouple to have the thermal time constant of one second.ii. Time required for the thermocouple junction to reach 198 deg C if junction is initially at 25 deg C and is placed in gas stream which is at 200 deg C.
A copper sphere with density 8900 kg/m3, radius 5.00 cm,and emissivity e = 1.00 sits on an insulated stand. The initial temperatureof the sphere is 300 K. The surroundings are very cold, so the rateof absorption of heat by the sphere can be neglected. (a) How long doesit take the sphere to cool by 1.00 K due to its radiation of heat energy?Neglect the change in heat current as the temperature decreases. (b) Toassess the accuracy of the approximation used in part (a), what is thefractional change in the heat current H when the temperaturechangesfrom 300 K to 299 K?

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.
