1.15 A thermocouple (0.8-mm-diameter wire) used to measure the temperature of the quiescent gas in a furnace gives a reading of . It is known, however, that the rate of radiant heat flow per meter length from the hotter furnace walls to the thermocouple wire is 1.1 W/m and the convection heat transfer coefficient between the wire and the gas is K. With this information, estimate the true gas temperature. State your assumptions and indicate the equations used.
Required information Heat dissipated from an engine in operation can cause hot spots on its surface. If the outer surface of an engine is situated in a place where oil leakage is possible, then when leaked oil comes in contact with hot spots above the oil's autoignition temperature, it can ignite spontaneously. Consider an engine cover that is made of a stainless-steel plate with a thickness of 1 cm and a thermal conductivity of 14 W/m.K. The stainless-steel plate is covered with a 5-mm-thick insulation (k=0.5 W/m.K). The inner surface of the engine cover is exposed to hot air at 350°C with a convection heat transfer coefficient of 5 W/m².K as shown in the figure. The 2-m-long engine outer surface is cooled by air blowing in parallel over it at 7 m/s in an environment where the ambient air is at 60°C. To prevent fire hazard in the event of oil leak on the engine cover, the engine cover surface should be kept below 180°C. It has been determined that the 5- mm-thick insulation layer is…

- Ground cherry seeds need to be planted at a depth of 1-cm below the surface and will only germinate if their surrounding soil is at a temperature of 24-30°C. Farmer Joe wants to know whether adding straw mulch (Amulch = 0.05 W/m K, Lmulch = 10 cm) on top of his soil will increase the odds of germination. The topsoil in Deleware is sandy loam (soil = 0.5 W/m K), with a thickness of 1 m. Immediately beneath the topsoil is the subsoil, which is at a constant temperature of Tsubsoil = 10°C. You can assume that the air in Deleware is fairly calm, with a heat transfer coefficient of h = 10 W/m².K. deleware (a) Sketch the system (with and without mulch), labeling all temperatures, dimensions, and proportionality constants. You may assume that the subsoil, topsoil, mulch, and air are at steady state. You should have two sketches.
