Chapter 10, Problem 10.31P

Electrical current passes through a horizontal. 2-mm- diameter conductor of emissivity 0.5 when immersed in water under atmospheric pressure.
 
(a) Estimate the power dissipation per unit length of the conductor required to maintain the surface temperature at 555°C.

(b) For conductor diameters of 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 mm, compute and plot the power dissipation per unit length as a function of surface temperature for 250 T s 650 ° C . On a separate figure, plot the percentage contribution of radiation as a function of T s .

Estimate the interfacial heat transfer coefficient for evaporation of a thin film of saturated liquid water at atmospheric pressure. The liquid film rests on a flat, solid surface to which a constant and uniform heat flux of 150 kW/m? is applied. The accommodation coefficient may be taken to be 0.05. If the liquid film thickness is 0.2 mm, compare the interfacial vaporization resistance with the conduction resistance through the liquid film.
In boiling water at 1 atm pressure outside a stainless-steel tube with a surface temperature of 410F, the heat-transfer coefficient h in the absence of radiation is 32 Btu/h*ft^2*F. If the emissivity of the stainless steel is 0.8, will radiation significantly augment the rate of boiling (e.g., by more than 5 percent)? Assume that the vapor film is transparent to radiation and the boiling liquid is opaque.
Calculate the heat losses per unit length in a horizontal tube with an outside diameter of 15 cm, if its surface is kept at 400 K AND the surrounding air has a temperature of 300 K and a pressure of 1 bar.The properties of air at a pressure of 1 bar and a film temperature of 350 K are: In this case, v = 20.76 x 10-6 m2/s , α = 0.2983 x 10-4 m2/s, k = 0.03003 W/mK, Pr = 0.697, β = 2.86 x 10-3 K-1
