cylindrical fuel element for a gas-cooled nuclear reactor, the heat generation rate within the fuel element due to fission can be approximated by the relation: q(r) = q_0 [1 - (r/a)^2] W/m^3 where a is the radius of the fuel element and q_0 is constant. The boundary surface at r = a is maintained at a uniform temperature T_0. Assuming one-dimensional, steady-state heat flow, develop a relation for the temperature drop from the centerline to the surface of the fuel element. For radius a= 30mm, the thermal conductivity k = 10 W/m middot K and q_0 = 2 times 10^7 W/m^3, calculate the temperature drop from the centerline to the surface.
A 15 cm outer diameter steam pipe is lagged to 25 cm diameter with magnesia of thermal conductivity 0.05 W/mK and further lagged with 30 cm diameter laminated asbestos of thermal conductivity 0.07 W/mK. Inner temperature of steam is 200° C and outer temperature is 25° C. Calculate the mass of steam condensed per hour for 120 m length of pipe. Assume latent heat of steam is 1900 kJ/kg.
The nose section of the rocket is made up of a 6 mm thick stainless steel plate (p = 7800 kg/m°, c = 460 J/kg°C, k = 55 W/m°C). It is held initially at a uniform temperature of " T = 47°C. When the rocket enters the denser layers of the atmosphere at a very high velocity the effective temperature of the air surrounding the nose region attains the value 2150 °C; the surface convective heat transfer coefficient is estimated as 3395 W/m?°C. If the maximum metal temperature is not to exceed 1100°C, determine: (i) Maximum permissible time in these surroundings. (i) Inside surface temperature under these conditions.
