An ice chest whose outer dimensions are 30 cm*40 cm*40 cm is made of 3 cm thick Styrofoam (k = 0.033 W/m°C). Initially, the chest is filled with 30 kg of ice at 0 °C, and the inner surface temperature of the ice chest can be taken to be 0 °C at all times. The heat of fusion of water at 0 °C is 333.7 kJ/kg, and the surrounding ambient air is at 20 °C. Disregarding any heat transfer from the 40 cm*40 cm base of the ice chest, determine how long it will take for the ice in the chest to melt completely if the ice chest is subjected to (a) calm air and (b) winds at 30 km/h (assume the heat transfer coefficient on the front, back and top surfaces to be the same as that on the side surfaces). Use the thermophysical properties of air as follows: k = 25.5×10-3 W/mK, ν = 15×10-6 m2/s, α = 21.1×10-6 m2/s, and β = 3.43×10-3 K-1.

The temperature of a gas stream is measured by a thermocouple whose junction can be approximated as a 1-mm-diameter sphere. Take the junction’s properties as: k of 32 W/m K, density of 8.2 kg/m^3, c of 300 J/Kg K. On its surface, the overall heat transfer coefficient is 200 W/m^2 K. Neglect any conduction loss from the sphere to other parts of the thermocouple. Create a plot of measurement error as a function of time for the thermocouple, expressed as a fraction of the initial temperature difference.
