The Biot number during a heat transfer process between a sphere and its surroundings is determined to be 0.02. Would you use lumped system analysis or the transient temperature charts when determining the midpoint temperature of the sphere? Why?
Consider heat transfer between two identical hot solid bodies and their environments. The first solid is dropped in a large container filled with water, while the second one is allowed to cool naturally in the air. For which solid is the lumped system analysis more likely to be applicable? Why?
A heating system is to be designed to keep the wings of an aircraft cruising at a veloeity of 900 km/h above freezing temperatures during flight at 12.200-m altitude where the standard atmospheric conditions are -55.4°C and 188 kPa. Approximating the wing as a cylinder of elliptical cross section whose minor axis is 30 cm and disregarding radiation, determine the average convection heat transfer coefficient on the wing surface and the average rate of heat transfer per unit surface area.

- Consider hotdog being cooked in boiling water in a pan. Would the heat transfer be modeled as one-dimensional or two-dimensional? Would the heat transfer be steady or transient? Explain.arrow_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_forwardWhen is the heat transfer through a fluid conduction and when is it convection? For which case is the rate of heat transfer higher? How does the convection heat transfer differ from the thermal conductivity of the fluid?arrow_forward
- what are the different modes of heat transfer? Explain transfer of heat by convection process?arrow_forwardAn electric resistance space heater is designed such that it resembles a rectangular box 50 cm high, 80 cm long, and 15 cm wide filled with 45 kg of oil. The heater is to be placed against a wall, and thus heat transfer from its back surface is negligible. The surface temperature of the heater is not to exceed 75°C in a room at 25°C for safety considerations. Disregarding heat transfer from the bottom and top surfaces of the heater in anticipation that the top surface will be used as a shelf, determine the power rating of the heater in W. Take the emissivity of the outer surface of the heater to be 0.8 and the average temperature of the ceiling and wall surfaces to be the same as the room air temperature. Also, determine how long it will take for the heater to reach steady operation when it is first turned on (i.e., for the oil temperature to rise from 25°C to 75°C). State your assumptions in the calculations.arrow_forwardA person is found dead at 5PM in a room whose temperature is 20°C. Thetemperature of the body is measured to be 25°C when found, Modeling thebody as a 30-cm-diameter, 1.70-m-long cylinder and the heat transfer coefficient estimated to be 8 W/m2·K. and using the lumped system analysis as a rough approximation, estimate the time of death of the person.arrow_forward
- 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.

If the temperature and the emissivity of the outer surface of the pipe are 73°C and 0.8, respectively, determine the rate of heat loss from the pipe by (a) natural convection and (b) radiation.arrow_forwardConsider a 0.8-m-high and 1.5-m-wide double-pane window consisting of two 4-mm-thick layers of glass (k 0.78 W/m · °C) separated by a 10-mm-wide stagnant air space (k 0.026 W/m · °C). Determine the steady rate of heat transfer through this double-pane window and the temperature of its inner surface for a day during which the room is maintained at 20°C while the temperature of the outdoors is 10°C. Take the convection heat transfer coefficients on the inner and outer surfaces of the window to be h1 10 W/m2 · °C and h2 40 W/m2 · °C, which includes the effects of radiation.arrow_forward
