A very thin metallic sheet is placed between two wood plates of different thicknesses. Theplates are firmly pressed together and electricity is passed through the sheet. The exposed surfaces ofthe two plates lose heat to the ambient fluid by convection. Assume uniform heating at the interface.Neglect end effects and assume steady state.[a] Will the heat transfer through the two plates be the same? Explain.[b] Will the exposed surfaces be at the same temperature? Explain
Design consideration requires that the surface of a small electronic package be maintained at atemperature not to exceed 82 o C. Noise constraints rule out the use of fans. The power dissipated inthe package is 35 watts and the surface area is 520 cm2 . The ambient temperature and surroundingwalls are assumed to be at 24 o C. The heat transfer coefficient is estimated to be 9.2 W/m2- oC andsurface emissivity is 0.7. Will the package dissipate the required power without violating designconstraints?
Consider radiation from a small surface at 100 oC which is enclosed by a much larger surface at24 o C. Determine the percent increase in the radiation heat transfer if the temperature of the smallsurface is doubled.

- We consider a laminar flow induced by an impulsively started infinite flat plate. The y-axis is normal to the plate. The x- and z-axes form a plane parallel to the plate. The plate is defined by y = 0. For time t <0, the plate and the flow are at rest. For t≥0, the velocity of the plate is parallel to the 2-coordinate; its value is constant and equal to uw. At infinity, the flow is at rest. The flow induced by the motion of the plate is independent of z. (a) From the continuity equation, show that v=0 everywhere in the flow and the resulting momentum equation is მu Ət Note that this equation has the form of a diffusion equation (the same form as the heat equation). (b) We introduce the new variables T, Y and U such that T=kt, Y=k/2y, U = u where k is an arbitrary constant. In the new system of variables, the solution is U(Y,T). The solution U(Y,T) is expressed by a function of Y and T and the solution u(y, t) is expressed by a function of y and t. Show that the functions are identical.…arrow_forwardPart A: Suppose you wanted to drill a 1.5 in diameter hole through a piece of 1020 cold-rolled steel that is 2 in thick, using an HSS twist drill.
