Clothing made of several thin layers of fabric with trapped air in between, often called ski clothing, is commonly used in cold climates because it is light, fashionable, and a very effective thermal insulator. So it is no surprise that such clothing has largely replaced thick and heavy old-fashioned coats. Consider a jacket made of five layers of 0.1-mm-thick synthetic fabric (k = 0.13 W/m·K) with 1.5-mm-thick air space (k = 0.026 W/m·K) between the layers. Assuming the inner surface temperature of the jacket to be 28°C and the surface area to be 1.25 m2, determine the rate of heat loss through the jacket when the temperature of the outdoors is 0°C and the heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is 25 W/m2·K. What would your response be if the jacket is made of a single layer of 0.5-mm-thick synthetic fabric? What should be the thickness of a wool fabric (k = 0.035 W/m·K) if the person is to achieve the same level of thermal comfort wearing a thick wool coat instead of a…
The case-to-ambient thermal resistance of a power transistor that has a maximum power rating of 15 W is given to be 25°C/W. If the case temperature of the transistor is not to exceed 80°C, mark the power at which this transistor can be operated safely in an environment at 40°C..
a)Between 1.0 to 1.5 W
b)Between 1.5 to 2.0 W
c)Between 2.0 to 2.5 W
A 50-meter-long cast iron pipe with a 10-centimeter outside diameter goes through a 288 K temperature open environment. The temperature of the pipe's outer surface is 423 K, and the combined heat transfer coefficient on the pipe's outside surface is 25 W/m2 K.
Considering and stating the necessary assumptions determine, (5 marks)
(a) The rate of heat loss from the pipe
(b) The energy lost per year if the cost of the fuel is 0.52 $/therm ( 1 therm = 105,500 kJ)
c) The thickness of the insulation if 98% of the energy loss is planned to be saved. Consider the conduction coefficient of the insulation is 0.035 W/mK.
