Two nested spherical tanks with the internal and outer diameters of the 100 cm by 104 cm and 114 cm by 118 cm is used to store hot water at 100°C. Both tanks are made of boron fiber epoxy with different composite compositions. The thermal conductivity of the inner tank is 1.5 W/m K while the outer tank has a thermal conductivity of 0.5 W/m K. The gap between the tanks is filled with air (use properties of air at 50°C). The tank is located in an open environment at 0'C. The outer surface of the tank is white painted and heat transfer between the outer surface of the tank and the surrounding is by natural covection and radiation. The convection heat transfer coefficient at the inner and the outer surface of the pipe is h= 20 W/m' K and h,= 10 W/m K. Determine ; a. the rate of heat loss from the tank b. the inside, outside and intermediate surface temperatures. Hint: Take the outer surface temperature as 3°C for radiation calculations.

Transcribed Image Text:Two nested spherical tanks with the internal and outer
diameters of the 100 cm by 104 cm and 114 cm by 118 cm is
used to store hot water at 100 C. Both tanks are made of boron
fiber epoxy with different composite compositions. The
thermal conductivity of the inner tank is 1.5 W/m K while the
outer tank has a thermal conductivity of 0.5 W/m K. The gap
between the tanks is filled with air (use properties of air at
50°C). The tank is located in an open environment at 0'C. The
outer surface of the tank is white painted and heat transfer
between the outer surface of the tank and the surrounding is
by natural covection and radiation. The convection heat
transfer coefficient at the inner and the outer surface of the
pipe is h 20 W/m' K and h 10 W/m K. Determine;
a. the rate of heat loss from the tank
b. the inside, outside and intermediate surface temperatures.
Hint: Take the outer surface temperature as 3°C for radiation
calculations.

Note: For ideal gases, the properties C, k, µ, and Pr are independent of pressure. The properties p, v, and a at a pressure P (in atm) other than 1 atm are determined
by multiplying the values of p at the given temperature by Pand by dividing v and a by P.
