- An electrical transmission line of 1.2-cm diameter carries a current of 200 amps and has a resistance of 310-4 ohm per meter of length. If the air around this line is at v, determine the surface temperature on a windy day, assuming a wind blows across the line at 33 km/h.arrow_forwardQuestion No. 3: During a cold winter day, wind at 55 km/h is blowing parallel to a 4-m-high and 10-m-long wall of a house. If the air outside is at 5°C and the surface temperature of the wall is12°C, determine the rate of heat loss from that wall by convection. What would your answer be if the wind velocity was doubledarrow_forwardAir at 300 degrees Celsius flows over a plate of dimension 0.5 m by 0.25 m. If the convection heat transfer coefficient is 250 Watts per Sq.m Kelvin, determine the heat transfer rate from the air to one side of the plate if the plate is to be maintained at 40 degrees Celsius.arrow_forward
- A long 8-cm-diameter steam pipe whose external surface temperature is 90°C passes through some open area that is not protected against the winds. Determine the rate of heat loss from the pipe per unit of its length when the air is at 1 atm pressure and 7°C and the wind is blowing across the pipe at a velocity of 50 km/h.arrow_forwardA long 8-cm diameter vertical steam pipe whose external surface temperature is 90 degrees C passes through some open area that is not protected against the wind blows. Determine the rate of heat loss from the pipe per unit length when the air is at 1 atm, 7 degrees Celsius and the wind is blowing across the pipe at a velocity of 50 km/h.

Pr = 0.71arrow_forwardA sphere of diameter 10 mm and density 7700 kg/ m3 falls under gravity at terminal conditions through a liquid of density 900 kg/ m3 in a tube of diameter 12 mm. After reaching terminal velocity, the ball falls 5 cm in 31.3 seconds. Using the Francis wall correction factor: fw = (1-x/D)2.25 where x is the particle diameter and D is the diameter of the tube and fw is the wall factor (the velocity in the tube / velocity in an infinitely large tube), determine the: a) viscosity (Pa s) of the fluid if Stokes law applies (Correct Answers: 4.118) b) Reynolds number if the fluid viscosity is given in the previous part (Correct Answers: 0.1967) c) minimum viscosity where the Re <= 0.3 (Correct Answers: 2.7) I need help with the steps!

- Air is flowing in parallel over the upper surface of a flat plate with a length of 4 m. The first half of the plate length, from the leading edge, has a constant surface temperature of 50°C. The second half of the plate length is subjected to a uniform heat flux of 86 W/m2. The air has a free stream velocity and temperature of 0.5 m/s and 10°C respectively. The properties of air at Tf = 30°C are k = 0.02588 W/m∙K, ν = 1.608 × 10−5 m2/s, and Pr = 0.7282. Determine the local convection heat transfer coefficients at 1 m and 3 m from the leading edge.arrow_forwardAir is flowing in parallel over the upper surface of a flat plate with a length of 4 m.
