Conduction and Convection

When energy travels from one object to another it is said to have undergone heat transfer. Heat transfer is nothing but the transfer of thermal energy or internal energy from one thing to another, like e.g., when a vessel with water, kept on top of a burner, heats up because of the flame underneath it.

Question

A cylindrical cold storage facility with an inner diameter of 4m and height of 2m is constructed. For the wall, the first layer is 6 cm of glass wool
(0.1 W/m-C), followed by 30 cm of concrete. The temperature inside is maintained at -10C (hin = 55 W/m^2-C) while the outside temperature is
10°C (hout = 22 w/m^2-C). If the steady rate of heat transfer is at 60W, (a) what is the thermal conductivity of concrete? (b) At what radius is the
temperature at 0°C? To prevent water condensation inside the concrete wall (which damages the structure), A 5 cm layer of insulation (k = 0.15
W/m-C) is added to the exterior of the facility. (c) What is the new rate of heat transfer?

Answer this ASAP,thx An empty sphere is made of aluminum (k = 202 W/m. °C) with an inner diameter of 4 cm and an outer diameter of 8 cm. The inside temperature is 100°C and If the ball above is coated with an insulating material having k = 50 mW/m. °C 1 cm thick. The outside of this insulation is in contact with an environment having h = 20 W/m.°C and Ts = 10°C, calculate the heat transfer under these conditions.
Find the heat transfer per unit area through the composite wall in the figure. Assume one-dimensional heat flow and there is no heat flow between B and C.

An insulated vertical cylindrical vessel of cross- sectional area A = 0.12 m² contains 20 mol of He gas at To = 300 K and Po= 0.5 bar. It is capped by a movable piston of mass m = 150 kg supported from the ceiling by a wire. The top of the vessel is open to the atmosphere (Patm= 1 bar, Tatm= 300K). The wire is cut and the weight falls and com- presses the gas. Patm 160 E Wir og SLOWA He gas 1019 (a) Obtain the pressure and temperature of the gas a short time after the wire has been cut, when a negligible amount of heat transfer has taken place. Comment on whether your solution takes into account the inevitable oscillations of the piston around its equilibrium position before it comes to rest. mut Ispl (b) After a long time, the He gas thermally equilibrates with the environ- ment by heat transfer through the piston. How much heat is exchanged with the environment during this process? Helium can be considered an ideal gas at all conditions of interest, with C₁=3R/2. INST
