A science experiment is being conducted in a spherical container made of thick glass (ID = 40mm, wall thickness = 20mm. The spherical container contains a liquid metallic salt W and the air outside the m²K (Tsalt = 1800°C). If the convection coefficient of the salt is h = 900 %3| container is at RT, what must the outside air convection coefficient be to limit the temperature difference between the inner and outer surfaces of the glass container to 1400°C?

Expert Solution
Step 1
Given data,
Thermal conductivity of the glass(from the table), Kglass = 1 W/mK
Inner diameter of the glass sphere = 40 mm
so, inner radius of the glass sphere, ri = 20 mm= 0.02 m
Outer radius of the glass sphere, ro = ri + (Thickness of the glass)
ro = 20 + 20 = 40 mm = 0.04 m
Temperature of the metallic salt, Tsalt = 1800
Convective heat transfer of the salt, hsalt = 900 W/m2K
Outside temperature of the air is room temperature i.e., T = 27
Temperature difference between inside and outside surface of the container, = 1400
To determine, the convective heat transfer coefficient of the outside air
