Required information The components of an electronic system dissipating 150 W are located in a 5-ft-long horizontal duct whose cross section is 6 in x 6 in. The components in the duct are cooled by forced air, which enters at 85°F at a rate of 22 cfm and leaves at 100°F. The surfaces of the sheet metal duct are not painted, and thus radiation heat transfer from the outer surfaces is negligible. The ambient air temperature is 80°F. Use the property tables to calculate the properties of air at the film temperature. Assume the fan fails and thus all heat generated inside the duct must be rejected to the ambient air by natural convection through the outer surfaces of the duct. Evaluate air properties at a film temperature of 120°F and 1 atm pressure. k = 0.01576 Btu/h-ft-°F v= 0.1923 x 10-3 ft²/s Pr = 0.723 NOTE: This is a multi-part question.

A 2 x 2 m flat plate solar collector for domestic hot water heating is shown in the figure. The incident solar radiation on the glass cover, which transmits 90% of the incident flux, is 750 W/m². Water flows through the tubes soldered to the backside of the absorber plate, entering at a temperature of 25°C. The temperature of the glass cover is 27°C, and it radiates heat with an emissivity of 0.92 to the sky at-50°C. Additionally, the glass cover losses heat by convection to air at 20°C flowing over its surface at 30 km/h.
