2. A heater is a thin vertical panel 1.0m long and 0.7m high and is used in a warehouse to keep workers warm. The heater has air circulating on each side. Assume the maximum temperature of the panel is 60°C (already above the board line that is safe for human hands to touch briefly without getting hurt). Assume the room air temperature is 18°C but the warehouse wall temperature is 5°C. Model the surface with an emittance of 0.9 and Vair = 1.57x10-5 m²/s. a. Determine the maximum power rating for the heater. b. Now if you run the heat by standing on its side (it will be 1.0 m high and 0.7 m long), determine the surface temperature. c. Compare case a and b and explain any differences you see.

3. An electric immersion heater, 10 mm in diameter and 300 mm long, is rated at 550 W. The emissivity of the heater is ε = 0.85. a) If the heater is horizontally positioned in a large tank of water at 20°C, estimate its surface temperature. b) If the heater is accidentally operated in air at 20°C, estimate the surface temperature. Hint: Radiation heat transfer can be neglected in liquids, but not in gases like air.
The Diamond Ring Solution. The processing chip on the computer that controls the navigation equipment on your spacecraft is overheating. Unless you fix the problem, the chip will be damaged and the navigation system will shut down. You open the panel and find that the small copper disk that was supposed to bridge the gap between the smooth top of the chip and the cooling plate is missing, leaving a 2.0 mm gap between them. In this configuration, the heat cannot escape the chip at the required rate. You notice by the thin smudge of thermal grease (a highly thermally conductive material used to promote good thermal contact between surfaces) that the missing copper disk was 2.0 mm thick and had a diameter of 1.0 cm. You know that the chip is designed to run below 70 °C, and the copper cooling plate is held at a constant 5.0 °C. (a) What was the rate of heat flow from the chip to the copper plate when the original copper disk was in place and the chip was at its maximum operating…
Problem 3: During summer, the temperature in Dhahran averages at 38°C for the entire day and night period. To maintain the inside of a building at the comfort level of 20°C, an Engineer suggested to use a commercial air conditioning (AC) system. The insulation and thermal design of the building is such that 28000 kJ/h of heat transfers to Inside 28000 Outside 20°C kJ/h 38°C Refrigerant loop Evaporator Condenser Compressor the building from outside. This amount of heat needs to be removed by the AC. The cost of electricity is 0.21 Ryial/kWh. Hint: 1 kWh-360OJ a. The suggested air conditioner requires a net power input to the compressor of 2 kW. Is the Engineer's suggestion valid? Calculate the coefficient of performance and the cost of electricity for one summer month. b. What is the minimum theoretical cost to operate the air conditioner? Discuss your results.
Two plane disks each 1.25 m in diameter are parallel and directly opposed to each other. They are separated by a distance of 0.5 m. Disk 1 is heated by electrical resistance to 833.3 K. Both disks are insulated on all faces except the two faces directly opposed to each other. Assume that the surroundings emit no radiation and that the disks are in space. Calculate the temperature of disk 2 at steady state and also the electrical energy input to disk 1. Hint: The fraction of heat lost from area 1 to space is (1 – F12). The equation is shown below
Can someone please help me with creating an excel spreadsheet to calculate heat transfer phenomenon from a cylindrical fuel rod to the coolant? The excel sheet needs to be able to calculate these 3 things: Heat generated in a fuel rod at a distance ‘r’ from the center; Total Heat generated in the Reactor; the maximum temperature in the fuel and the cladding surface temperature, for a fuel rod at a distance ‘r’ from the center. The fuel used in this will be UO2 and there is a thin layer of helium that will separate the fuel from the cladding material. The user input parameters will be: the thermal neutron flux at the core, thermal conductivity of fuel, thermal conductivity of helium, thermal conductivity of the cladding, thickness of the helium layer, thickness of the cladding, diameter of the fuel pellet, fuel rod location (r), Cylindrical Reactor Size, and the fuel enrichment. For the fluid the user input will be coolant temperature and the heat transfer coefficient.

What amount of energy input would be needed to maintain the water at its boiling point for 30 minutes? The polished stainless steel pot is cylindrical, 20 cm in diameter and 14 cm high, with a tight-fitting flat cover. The air temperature in the kitchen is about 25 ° C. State any assumptions you make in deriving your estimates

The diagram below illustrates a simplified version of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory's 25-ft space simulator chamber. Within it, tests are run for deep space probes and their components. In this particular experiment, a sensor assembly with its housing is placed inside. The sensor-housing electronics create heat such that q=3181.0 W exits the assembly's top surface into the chamber. The chamber itself is under vacuum, and its walls are at cryogenic temperatures to simulate conditions in space. Surfaces 1 and 2 are flat. Assume they are flush. The top surface of the chamber, Surface 4, can be approximated as a perfectly insulated, flat ceiling. The exposed surface of the floor, Surface 2, is a black, donut- shaped surface. Additional surface information can be seen below, including various parameters and dimensions. Assume all surfaces are opaque and diffuse, and conditions are at steady-state. PARAMETERS & DIMENSIONS Surface 1: A = 7.07 m²; diameter d; = 3 m; &₁ = 0.5; Surface 2: A₂ =…
Question: a) We want to increase heat transfer by placing fans to provide forced convection to reduce the length of the pipe necessary (Note that the outside surface temperature of the pipe remains the same at 100oC). What is the rate of heat transfer from pipe to the air per meter length if the air speed over the pipe surface is 5m/s? What is the total length of the pipe necessary? Problem: Consider a rectangular warehouse with the dimensions of 40m long x 20m widex10m height. The overall heat transfer coefficient for all sidewalls is Uwall=0.3 W/m2K (Approx. R=20 hr.ft2.oF/Btu) and for the flat roof, it is Uroof= 0.20W/m2K. The floor can be assumed to be insulated and we can ignore the heat transfer through the doors, etc. We want to maintain the inside air temperature at 15oC while the outside temperature is 0oC by using a thin-walled, 5.0cm diameter copper pipe that carries steam. Steam enters the pipe as saturated vapor at 100oC. So, as it starts losing heat to the inside air, it…
In Gaziantep, many people use the energy of the Sun for heating their domestic water used for having shower in bathroom, for washing-machines, for kitchen stuffs, and etc. An ordinary solar collector panel is generally constructed on the roof of a house and the panels are declined approximately 60° with the horizontal line. Commonly, the total surface area of two glass panels is approximately 4.0 m² (2 panels: 1980mm x 1000mm for each) and they receive the energy from the Sun to heat the water. Although there is an inclination by 60°, it is reported that the twenty percent of the total incoming energy is reflected back to the atmosphere by well-insulated panel's glass surface. The remaining energy is used to heat the domestic water from 20°C to 50°C, and it is stored in storage tanks in a sunny day. The cold water enters from the bottom side of panel and exits from the top. It is assumed that the water passing through the solar collector has a negligible pressure drop. If the volume…
