Problem 3. Consider a heater in the form of a hollow sphere perfectly insulated at the outside. Heat generation rate is uniform in the sphere. Water flows inside this heater at a flow rate of 1L/s with a heat transfer coefficient of h=300W/m².K. Water inlet and outlet temperatures are 25°C and 35°C respectively. Assuming good mixing inside the sphere, find the steady state temperature distribution in the heater. Neglect the effect of inlet and outlet holes. Kheater-200W/m.K.

Transcribed Image Text:Problem 3. Consider a heater in the form of a hollow sphere perfectly insulated at the outside.
Heat generation rate is uniform in the sphere. Water flows inside this heater at a flow rate of 1L/s
with a heat transfer coefficient of h=300W/m².K. Water inlet and outlet temperatures are 25°C
and 35°C respectively. Assuming good mixing inside the sphere, find the steady state temperature
distribution in the heater. Neglect the effect of inlet and outlet holes. Kheater=200W/m.K.
