A 24 × 40 ft ( 7.3 × 12.2  m ) building has a full basement with uninsulated walls extending 5 ft (1.5 m) below grade. The insides of the walls are finished with R-8 (R-0.7) insulation a thin vapor barrier and 1 2 in. (12.7 mm) gypsum board. Estimate an overall heat-transfer coefficient for the walls.

....A journal bearing is to be used for a centrifugal pump where the shaft diameter is 50 mm and the bearing length is 80 mm. The ambient and bearing surface temperatures are 20°C and 45°C, respectively. Which of the following is the heat dissipated by the bearing if the heat dissipation coefficient is 280 W/m2-°C? Group of answer choices 56 W 14 W 73 W 28 W
To cool a storehouse in the summer without using a conventional air-conditioning system, the owner decided to hire an engineer to design an alternative system that would make use of the water in the nearby lake. The engineer decided to flow air through a thin smooth 10-cm-diameter copper tube that is submerged in the nearby lake. The water in the lake is typically maintained at a constant temperature of 15°C and a convection heat transfer coefficient of 1000 W/m2?K. If air (1 atm) enters the copper tube at a mean temperature of 30°C with an average velocity of 2.5 m/s, determine the necessary copper tube length so that the outlet mean temperature of the air is 20°C.
In a food industry, pieces of meat with approximately 30 cm in diameter and 20 mm in thickness are stored in a industrial freezer and thawed by exposure to ambient air at 15°C with convective heat transfer coefficient equal to 10W/(m2.K). Consider a piece of meat that, when removed from the freezer, had a temperature of -12°C. For defrosting, the piece is hung on a "line", so that both larger surfaces are exposed to the ambient air. For frozen meat, the following properties can be assumed ρ=1090 kg/m3, cp=3.54 kJ/(kg.K), k=0.47 W/(m.K). Ask: (1) Indicating the control volume and the simplifications adopted, obtain the differential energy balance equation for the cooling the piece of meat and describe the conditions of outline and initial that apply to the process, justifying them; (2) Use the appropriate analytical solution to determine the time necessary for the complete defrosting of the part. The part is considered to be completely thawed when a minimum temperature of 5oC is reached…
