Chapter 8, Problem 8.10P

The immersed object shown in Figure 8.1.2e is steel and has a mass of 100 kg and a specific heat of cp= 500 J/kg • °C. Assume the thermal resistance is R = 0.09°C • s/J. The inital temperature of the object is 20° when it is dropped into a large bath of temperature 80°C. Obtain the expression for the temperature 77/) of the object after it is dropped into the bath.

A steel pipe (outside diameter 100 mm) is covered with two layers of insulation. The inside layer, 40 mm thick, has a thermal conductivity of 0.07 W/(m K). The outside layer, 20 mm thick, has a thermal conductivity of 0.15 W/(m K). The pipe is used to convey steam at a pressure of 600 kPa. The outside temperature of insulation is 24°C. If the pipe is 10 m long, determine the following, assuming the resistance to conductive heat transfer in steel pipe and convective resistance on the steam side are negligible: a. The heat loss per hour. b. The interface temperature of insulation.
How long should it take to boil an egg? Model the egg as a sphere with radius of 2.3 cm that has properties similar to water with a density of = 1000 kg/m3 and thermal conductivity of k = 0.606 Watts/(mC) and specific heat of c = 4182 J/(kg C). Suppose that an egg is fully cooked when the temperature at the center reaches 70 C. Initially the egg is taken out of the fridge at 4 C and placed in the boiling water at 100 C. Since the egg shell is very thin assume that it quickly reaches a temperature of 100 C. The protein in the egg effectively immobilizes the water so the heat conduction is purely conduction (no convection). Plot the temperature of the egg over time and use the data tooltip in MATLAB to make your conclusion on the time it takes to cook the egg in minutes.
10 km of steel railroad track are placed when the temperature is 20 C. The linear coefficient of thermal expansion for the rails is 11 x 10^6 1/ C. The track is free to slide forward. How far apart will the end of the track be when the temperature reaches 50 C
