- 1.29 A spherical interplanetary probe with a 30-cm diameter contains electronic equipment that dissipates 100 W. If the probe surface has an emissivity of 0.8, what is its surface temperature in outer space? State your assumptions in the calculations.arrow_forwardThe heat transfer coefficient between a surface and a liquid is 57 W/(m2K). How many watts per square meter will be transferred in this system if the temperature difference is 10C?arrow_forwardA pipe carrying superheated steam in a basement at 10C has a surface temperature of 150C. Heat loss from the pipe occurs by radiation (=0.6) and natural convection (hc=25W/m2K). Determine the percentage of the total heat loss by these two mechanisms.arrow_forward
- What are the important modes of heat transfer for a person sitting quietly in a room? What if the person is sitting near a roaring fireplace?arrow_forwardA cooling system is to be designed for a food storage warehouse for keeping perishable foods cool prior to transportation to grocery stores. The warehouse has an effective surface area of 1860 m2 exposed to an ambient air temperature of 32C. The warehouse wall insulation (k=0.17W/(mK)) is 7.5 cm thick. Determine the rate at which heat must be removed (W) from the warehouse to maintain the food at 4C.arrow_forward1.60 Two electric resistance heaters with a 20 cm length and a 2 cm diameter are inserted into a well-insulated 40-L tank of water that is initially at 300 K. If each heater dissipates 500 W, what is the time required for bringing the water temperature in the tank to 340 K? State your assumption for your analysis.arrow_forward
- I just took a water bottle out of my refrigerator (0₁ = 3°C) and placed it on the kitchen counter. The environment is at 0₂ = 20 °C. The overall heat transfer coefficient between the bottle and the environment is 2 W/K and the heat capacity of the bottle and its contents is 3 kJ/K. Over what time periods would you consider the bottle to be an adiabatic system? A diather- Colar mal system?arrow_forwardQuestion 2 Figure 2 shows the cross-sectional of inner and outer surfaces of a 4 m x 7 m brick wall with thickness of 30 cm and thermal conductivity 0.69 W/m.K. The inner and outer surfaces are to be maintained at temperatures of 26°C and 8°C, respectively. Determine the rate of heat transfer through the wall, in W. Answer: 26°C Brick wall 30 cm Figure 2 8°Carrow_forward0.3MW / m3 heat is generated in a 6 cm thick flat wall. One surface of the wall is insulated and the other surface is exposed to an environment of 93C. The convection heat coefficient between the wall and the environment is 570 W / m2C and the heat conduction coefficient for the wall is 21 W / Since it is mC, calculate the maximum temperature (T0) inside the wall (C).arrow_forward
- When the difference in temperature between the sides of a wooden board 80 cm long, 50 cm wide, and 10 mm thick is 400C, heat flows through the board at the rate of 240 W. The thermal conductivity of the wood isarrow_forwardH.W1 Consider a person standing in a room. Determine the total rate of heat transfer from this person if the exposed surface area and temperature are 1.6m² and 29°C, respectively. Assume that the convection heat transfer coefficient is 6W/m².K and the emissivity of a person is 0.95. The air temperature in the room is maintained at 22°C at all times of the year. In summer, the wall and ceiling temperatures are observed to be 25°C, while in winter, they are 10°C. Ans: Qrotal =104.4 W In Summer Qrotal =231.3 W In Winterarrow_forwardThe car is outdoors in direct sunlight. The outside air temperature is 27 ° C. The temperature inside the car is maintained by air conditioning 22 ° C. What is the temperature of the outside surface of the car roof? The power density of solar radiation is 840 W / m2 and the absorption coefficient of the roof paint for radiation is 0.51. The heat transfer coefficient from the roof surface to the outside air is 11.6 W / (m2K), which also includes heat radiation from the surface to the environment. Radiation from the atmosphere to the car is not taken into account. The total thermal resistance of the car's roof structure is 1.0 m2K / W. The task does not look at any other part of the vehicle but only the roof. If you need an area, make a calculation per 1 m2.arrow_forward
