Air at 4 °C is being carried within a metal cylindrical pipe to astorage room at a bioprocessing facility, where a heat-sensitive protein product must be stored until it is transferred to another facility. The outer diameter of the pipe is 400 mm, and the thickness of the pipe is 2 mm. The pipe is installed within a larger room where the room temperature is kept at 20°C. There is a layer of insulating material around the metal pipe. Thermal conductivity of the metal pipe is 60 W/m*K, whereas the thermal conductivity of the insulating material is 0.04 W/m*K. Heat gain by the air being transported occurs at a steady rate of 40 W. A while later, it becomes necessary to reduce the temperature of the flowing air down to 0 °C for another protein product. By how much (in percentages) should the insulation material thickness should increase in order to maintain this air temperature within the pipe? Assume the inner surface temperature of the metal pipe is equal to the air temperature in the…

that the inside surface temperature of the metal wall is at 121.1°C and the outer sur-
face of the insulation is at 26.7°C, calculate the heat loss for 30.5 m of pipe. Also,

Thank you!arrow_forwardPlease include a fbd of the problemarrow_forwardThe rate at which energy must be dissipated away from single integrated circuits (computer chips) continues to increase as transitors continue to shrink in size and more and more computations are being completed in smaller and smaller volumes. The maximum chip temperature, however, has not changed much over time and remains around Tc = 75 °C. To increase the rate of dissipation of thermal energy away from a new chip, it is proposed to add a 5 x 5 array of copper pin fins to the chip. Each fin will be individually joined to the chip surface such that there is a minimal contact resistance between the fin and the chip. The diameter of the fins is df = 1 mm and the length is Lf = 15 mm. The chip is square, with a side length of W= 15 mm. It is so thin that it can be treated as having a single temperature. A dielectric liquid flows over the outer surface of the chip and around the fins, with a temperature of T»,f= 20 °C and a convection coefficient of hf = 1150 W/m²-K.
