Hello Sir,Good Afternoon. I have a question in my homework related Heat Transfer lesson. The following below is my question. Please Advice. Thank You
Solar radiation is incident on the glass cover of asolar collector at a rate of 700 W/m2. The glass transmits88 percent of the incident radiation and has an emissivityof 0.90. The entire hot water needs of a family in summercan be met by two collectors 1.2 m high and 1 m wide. Thetwo collectors are attached to each other on one side so thatthey appear like a single collector 1.2 m * 2 m in size. Thetemperature of the glass cover is measured to be 35°C on aday when the surrounding air temperature is 25°C and thewind is blowing at 30 km/h. The effective sky temperaturefor radiation exchange between the glass cover and the opensky is 240°C. Water enters the tubes attached to the absorberplate at a rate of 1 kg/min. Assuming the back surface of theabsorber plate to be heavily insulated and the only heat lossto occur through the glass cover, determine (a) the total rateof heat loss from the collector, (b) the collector efficiency,which is the ratio of the amount of heat transferred to…

An 8-m-internal-diameter spherical tank made of 1.5-cm-thick stainless steelAISI 302 is used to store iced water at 0°C. The tank is located in a roomwith temperature 25°C. The outer surface of the tank is black (emissivity, ε= 1), the heat transfer between the outer surface of the tank and thesurroundings is by natural convection and radiation. The convection heattransfer coefficients at the inner and the outer surfaces of the tank are 80W/m2K and 10W/m2K, respectively; and the outer surface temperature of thetank is 5°C. Draw the equivalent thermal circuit of the system. Determine the total heat transfer rate to the iced water in the tank and the total amount of ice at 0°C that melts after 24 hours.
Hi, can you help me to answer this question using the first law of thermodynamics? On a hot summer day a student turns his fan on when he leaves his room in themorning. When he returns in the evening will the room be warmer or cooler than theneighborouing rooms ? Explain your answer using the first law of thermodynamics.Assume ALL doors and windows are kept closed.
The boiling temperature of nitrogen at atmospheric pressure at sea level (1 atm pressure) is -196 °C. Therefore, nitrogen is commonly used in low-temperature scientific studies since the temperature of liquid nitrogen in a tank open to the atmosphere will remain constant at -196 °C until it is depleted. Any heat transfer to the tank will result in the evaporation of some liquid nitrogen, which has a heat of vaporization of 198 kJ/kg and a density of 810 kg/m3 at 1 atm. Consider a 3-m-diameter spherical tank that is initially filled with liquid nitrogen at 1 atm and -196 °C. The tank is exposed to ambient air at 15° C, with a combined convection and radiation heat transfer coefficient of 35 W/m2⋅K. The temperature of the thin-shelled spherical tank is observed to be almost the same as the temperature of the nitrogen inside. Determine the rate of evaporation (in kg/s) of the liquid nitrogen in the tank as a result of the heat transfer from the ambient air if the tank is insulated with…
