Chapter 2, Problem 2.39P

The tip of a soldering iron consists of a 0.6-cm- diameter copper rod, 7.6 cm long. If the tip must be 204°C , what are the required minimum temperature of the base and the heat flow, in watts, into the base? Assume that h ¯ =   22.7  W/m 2  K and  T air  = 21°C .

An ice chest is constructed of Styrofoam [k = 0.033 W/m.°C] with inside dimensions of 25 by 40 by 100 cm. The wall thickness is 5.0 cm The outside of the chest is exposed to air at 25°C with N=10 W/m2°C. If the chest is completely filled with ice, calculate the time for the ice to completely melt. State your assumptions. The enthalpy of fusion for water is 330 kJ/kg
5 An ice chest is constructed of Styrofoam [k = 0.033 W/m · ◦C] with inside dimensions of 25 by 40 by 100 cm. The wall thickness is 5.0 cm. The outside of the chest is exposed to air at 25◦C with h = 10 W/m2 · ◦C. If the chest is completely filled with ice, calculate the time for the ice to completely melt. State your assumptions. The enthalpy of fusion for water is 330 kJ/kg.
The kitchen, bath, and other ventilation fans in a house should be used sparingly since these fans can discharge a houseful of warmed or cooled air in just one hour. Consider a 200-m2 house whose ceiling height is 2.8 m. The house is heated by a 96 percent efficient gas heater and is maintained at 22°C and 92 kPa. If the unit cost of natural gas is $1.20/therm (1 therm = 105,500 kJ), determine the cost of energy “vented out” by the fans in 1 h. Assume the average outdoor temperature during the heating season to be 5°C.
