Please provide step-by-step calculations, also draw the nodes showing temperatures l A rectangular cross-section bar is held in steady conditions at different temperatures on each of its 4 sides. There is no internal heat generation, and the material properties are constant in all directions at all temperatures. The cross section has an aspect ratio of 1.5, with its longest side measuring 2.5 m in the x direction. It is split into 4 nodes in the x direction and 3 nodes in the y direction. The node numbering starts from (1,1) in the bottom left hand corner. The temperatures of the faces are held constant as follows: left hand side = 428 K, right hand side = 506 K, top side = 367 K, and bottom side = 298 K. The initial guess for the temperature of the internal nodes is 301 K. Using the Jacobi method to iterate, complete the following sentences. a) The temperature of node (3,2) after the 2nd iteration is _____ K. b) The temperature of node (3,2) after the 3rd iteration is _____ K.
5.10 A flaked cereal is of thickness 2L = 1.2 mm. The density, specific heat, and thermal conductivity of the flake are p = 700 kg/m³, cp = 2400 J/kg K, and k = 0.34 W/mK, respectively. The product is to be baked by increasing its temperature from T₁ = 20°C to T, = 220°C in a convec- tion oven, through which the product is carried on a con- veyor. If the oven is L₁ = 3 m long and the convection heat transfer coefficient at the product surface and oven air temperature are h = 55 W/m² K and T. = 300°C, respectively, determine the required conveyor velocity, V. An engineer suggests that if the flake thickness is reduced to 2L = 1.0 mm the conveyor velocity can be increased, resulting in higher productivity. Determine the required conveyor velocity for the thinner flake. 2L = 1.2 mm Conveyor belt Cereal product V L₂ Oven h = 55 W/m².K T_= 300°C
Problem 1. (Taken from Bergman et.al. 2011*) An igloo is built in the shape of a hemisphere, with an inner radius of 1.8 m and walls of compacted snow that are 0.5 m thick. On the inside of the igloo the surface heat transfer coefficient is 6 W/m².K; on the outside, under normal wind conditions, it is 15 W/m².K. The thermal conductivity of compacted snow is 0.15 W/m.K. The temperature of the ice cap on which the igloo sits is -20 °C and has the same thermal conductivity as the compacted snow. Artic wind Too Tair Ice cap Tice Igloo Assuming that the occupants' body heat provides a continuous source of 320 W within the igloo, calculate the inside air temperature when the outside air temperature is T∞ = -40 °C draw a thermal circuit for the heat transfer from the igloo. Be sure to consider heat losses through the floor of igloo where the heat transfer coefficient is 6 W/m²K.
