A person puts a few apples into the freezer at 15°C cool them quickly for guestswho are about to arrive. Initially, the apples are at a uniform temperature of 20°C,and the heat transfer coefficient on the surfaces is 8 W/m2·K. Treating the apples as9-cm-diameter spheres and taking their properties to be 840 kg/m3, Cp 3.81 kJ/kg·K, k = 0.418 W/m·K, and α =10-7 m2/s, determine the center and surface temperatures of the apples in 1 h. Also, determine the amount of heat transfer from each apple. Solve this problem using analytical one-term approximation method (notthe Heisler charts). Answer: Center: 11.2 ℃, Surface: 2.7 ℃, heat transfer: 17.2 kJ

(a) Consider a room with a 1.8-m-high and 2.0-m-wide double-pane window consisting of two 4-mm-thick layers of glass separated by a 10-mm-wide stagnant air space. The convection heat transfer coefficients on the inner and outer surfaces of the window are 12 W/m2 K and 25 W/m2 K, respectively, while the average thermal conductivity of glass is 0.78 W/m K; and the air, 0.026 W/m K.

- A 6 cm diameter sphere is initially at a temperature of 100C. Later, this sphere was thrown into water at 800C. Calculate how long it will take for the center temperature of the sphere to reach 500C by taking the convection heat transfer coefficient as 80W / m2K. Thermal properties of sphere material: k=0,627 W/moC a=0,151x10-6 m2/sarrow_forwardThe boiling temperature of oxygen at atmospheric pressure at sea level (1 atm) is -183ºC. Therefore, oxygen is used in low temperature scientific studies since the temperature of liquid oxygen in a tank open to the atmosphere remains constant at -183ºC until the liquid oxygen in the tank is depleted. Any heat transfer to the tank results in the evaporation of some liquid oxygen, which has a heat of vaporization of 213 kJ/kg and a density of 1140 kg/m3at 1 atm. Consider a 4 m diameter spherical tank initially filled with liquid oxygen at 1 atm and -183ºC. The tank is exosed to 20ºC ambient ait with a heat transfer coefficient of 25 W/m2. ºC. The temperature of the thin-shelled spherical tank is observed to be almost the same as the temperature of the oxygen inside. Disregarding any radiation heat exchange, determine the rate of evaporation of the liquid oxygen in the tank as a result of the heat transfer from the ambient airarrow_forwardhow is a three-dimensional heat equation reduced if heat transfer occurs in an insulated long, thin rod or wire of a specific length?

- The author and his then 6-year-old son have conducted the following experiment to determine the thermal conductivity of a hot dog. They first boiled water in a large pan and measured the temperature of the boiling water to be 94°C, which is not surprising, since they live at an elevation of about 1650 m in Reno, Nevada. They then took a hot dog that is 12.5 cm long and 2.2 cm in diameter and inserted a thermocouple into the midpoint of the hot dog and another thermocouple just under the skin. They waited until both thermocouples read 20°C, which is the ambient temperature. They then dropped the hot dog into boiling water and observed the changes in both temperatures. Exactly 2 min after the hot dog was dropped into the boiling water, they recorded the center and the surface temperatures to be 59°C and 88°C, respectively. The density of the hot dog can be taken to be 980 kg/m3, which is slightly less than the density of water, since the hot dog was observed to be floating in water while…arrow_forwardHi, can you help me to answer this question using the first law of thermodynamics formula to explain this event?
