the duct walls to the thermocouple bead is linearly proportional to the temperature difference between them. For v = 5 m/s, the thermocouple reads 50 °C while when the air flows at 10 m/s, it reads 40 °C. (a) If the actual temperature of the air is 25 °C, estimate the wall temperature. (b) What temperature will the thermocouple indicate when the gas velocity is 20 m/s.

Q. 1: A thermocouple is used to measure the temperature of air flowing
through a duct. The heat transfer coefficient between the air and the
thermocouple is proportional to vo.8, where v is the average velocity of
the air within the duct. Assume that the heat transfer by radiation from
the duct walls to the thermocouple bead is linearly proportional to the
temperature difference between them. For v = 5 m/s, the thermocouple
reads 50 °C while when the air flows at 10 m/s, it reads 40 °C.
(a) If the actual temperature of the air is 25 °C, estimate the wall
temperature.
(b) What temperature will the thermocouple indicate when the gas
velocity is 20 m/s.
