A woman informs an engineer that she frequently feels cooler in the summer when standing in front of an open refrigerator. The engineer tells her that she is only “imagining things” because there is no fan in the refrigerator to blow the cool air over her. A lively argument ensues. Whose side of the argument do you take? Why?
Which house uses more energy. Haron's house in June or Areum's house in December? Why do
you think so?
Haron's House
Areum's House
YLEENEDGARD **
TALE
Seoul, Korea
Singapore
3-bedroom 2 bathrooms
4-bedroom, 3 bathrooms
Well insulated
Poody insulated
Built 1997
Bricks and cement only
Built 1925, renovated 2005
Bricks with wood siding

3 air-conditioning units
As Uncle Areum and Uncle Haron continue to argue, you slip away to another (quieter) room.
Pulling out a pad of paper, you begin to think about what factors will have an influence on how
much energy is needed to heat or cool each house.

- On a mild Saturday morning while people are working inside, the furnace keeps the temperature inside the building at 23°C. At noon the furnace is turned off, and the people go home. The temperature outside is a constant 14°C for the rest of the afternoon. If the time constant for the building is 3 hr, when will the temperature inside the building reach 19°C? If some windows are left open and the time constant drops to 2 hr, when will the temperature inside reach 19°C? If the time constant for the building is 3 hr, the temperature inside the building will reach 19°C about hr after noon. (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)

- You want to heat a house on a very cold day as shown in the figure. To do this, you want to use photovoltaic panels as an energy source. It would be about using 15 panels each with an area of 1.5 m2. These panels would be connected to an electrical resistance that would heat the house as shown in the figure. The house is losing heat through the walls and ceiling as shown in the figure. The panels are receiving solar radiation at a rate of 800 W / m2 and if their efficiency is 15%. How much will the temperature of the house rise after an hour? The house is hermetically sealed. Assume that the specific heats of air, cv and cp, are constant as shown in the figure. sol = sun fuga = leakage aire = airarrow_forwardThe fin efficiency is defined as the ratio of the actual heat transfer from the fin to a.
