Introduction to Heat Transfer
- 1.3 A furnace wall is to be constructed of brick having standard dimensions of Two kinds of material are available. One has a maximum usable temperature of 1040°C and a thermal conductivity of 1.7 W/(m K), and the other has a maximum temperature limit of 870°C and a thermal conductivity of 0.85 W/(m K). The bricks have the same cost and are laid in any manner, but we wish to design the most economical wall for a furnace with a temperature of 1040°C on the hot side and 200°C on the cold side. If the maximum amount of heat transfer permissible is 950 , determine the most economical arrangement using the available bricks.arrow_forward1.37 Mild steel nails were driven through a solid wood wall consisting of two layers, each 2.5-cm thick, for reinforcement. If the total cross-sectional area of the nails is 0.5% of the wall area, determine the unit thermal conductance of the composite wall and the percent of the total heat flow that passes through the nails when the temperature difference across the wall is 25°C.

- As a designer working for a major electric appliance manufacturer, you are required to estimate the amount of fiberglass insulation packing (k = 0.035 W/m K) that is needed for a kitchen oven shown in the figure below. The fiberglass layer is to be sandwiched between a 2-mm-thick aluminum cladding plate on the outside and a 5-mm-thick stainless steel plate on the inside that forms the core of the oven. The insulation thickness is such that the outside cladding temperature does not exceed 40C when the temperature at the inside surface of the oven is 300C. Also, the air temperature in the kitchen varies from 15Cto33C, and the average heat transfer coefficient between the outer surface of the oven and air is estimated to be 12.0W/m2K. Determine the thickness of the fiberglass insulation that is required for these conditions. What would be the outer surface temperature when the inside surface of the oven is at 475C?arrow_forward6. a. The heat flux applied to the walls of the biomass combustion furnace is 20 W/m2.

Heating the iron cylinder on the bottom side is done by placing the iron on the hotplate. This iron has a length of 20 cm. The surface temperature of the hotplate is set at 300oC while the top side of the iron is in contact with the still outside air. To reach the desired hotplate temperature, it takes 5 minutes. Then it takes 15 minutes to measure the temperature of the upper side of the iron cylinder at 300oC.

Consider a plane wall (thermal conductivity, k = 0.8 W/mK, and thickness, fb1 = 100 mm) of a house as shown in Fig. Q1(a). The outer surface of the wall is exposed to solar radiation and has an absorptivity of a = 0.5 for solar energy, or=600 W/m².
