A cylindrical electrical heating element is used to heat up a baking oven. The heating element bears a voltage of 120 V/m, and has an electrical resistance of 1000 Ω/m. A ceramic pipe of inside radius rin = 2 mm, and outside radius rout = 5 mm encases the heating element. Thermal conductivity of the ceramic is k = 0.2 W/m-K. Given that the oven air temperature is T∞ = 180oC and convection coefficient h = 10 W/m2-K, find the temperature on the inside of the ceramic pipe.
Stainless steel pipes with a thermal conductivity of 17 W/ (m° C) are used to transport hot
oil. The temperature inside the tube is 130 ° C. The inner diameter of the pipe is 8 cm and
the thickness of the pipe wall is 2 cm. The pipe is then insulated with 4 cm thick insulation
with a thermal conductivity of 0.035 W / (m° C). The ambient temperature of the pipe is 25
° C. Calculate the temperature between the steel and the insulation if we assume a steady
state. A picture of the pipe can be seen below.
