A common arrangement for heating a large surface area is to move warm air through rectangular ducts below the surface. The ducts are square and located midway between the top and bottom surfaces that are exposed to room air and insulated, respectively. For the condition when the floor and duct temperatures are 30C and 80C, respectively, and the thermal conductivity of concrete is 1.4 W/m*K, calculate the heat rate from each duct, per unit length of the duct. Use a grid spacing with delta x = 2*(delta y), where delta y = 0.125L and L=150mm.
The fuel assembly shown in the left figure consists of periodic arrays of annular bare fuel rods, which are cooled by passing water through the center of the rods as well as over the outer surface. We want to analyze the thermal performance of the fuel rods by dividing the assembly into a number of unit cells (control volumes) and evaluating the performance of a cell, as shown in the right figure.
A storage tank consists of a cylindrical section that has a length and inner and inner diameter of L=2 m and Di=1 m, respectively, and two hemispherical end sections. The tank is constructed form 20 mm thick glass (pyrex) and is exposed to ambient air for which the temperature is 300 K. The tank is used to store heated oil, which maintains the inner surface at a temperature of 400 K. Determine the electrical power that must be supplied to a heater submerged in the oil if the prescribed conditions are to be maintained. Radiation effects may be neglected, and the pyrex may be assumed to have a thermal conductivity of 1.4 W/m.K.
