Chapter 5, Problem 5.26P

A heated building is built on a concrete slab with dimensions of 50 × 100 ft ( 15 × 30  m ) . The slab is insulated around the edges with 1.5 in. (40 mm) expanded polystyrene, 2 ft (0.61 m) in width. The outdoor design temperature is 10 F (—12 C). Estimate heat loss from the floor slab.

Q2/ A composite wall is formed of a 2.5 cm copper plate, a 3.2 mm layer of asbestos, and a 5 cm layer of fiberglass. The wall is subjected to an overall temperature difference of 560 C. Calculate the heat flow per unit area through the composite structure.
[2] A reservoir of hot water kept at 380K is well insulated except for a copper rod with a cross sectional area of 0.25 m? and a length of 0.50 meters. The rod is also well insulated except for its ends and the other end is in a second well insulated reservoir of water held at 280K. a) Determine the rate of heat flow through the copper rod. b) Calculate the temperature at the center of the rod (0.25 meters from either end). Then extend the process to find the temperature at each point 0.1m along the rod. c) Calculate the rate of entropy change at each end of the rod. d) Using your answer for (c), show that the statements "Heat flows spontaneously from high temperature to low temperature." and "Any spontaneous process causes the entropy of the universe to increase." are logically equivalent for situations with heat flow. e) Each reservoir of water holds 1 m of water. With a steady flow established, the power fails so that the heating and cooling of the water ceases. What are the…
you are assigned by your food engineering professor to assist a food manufacturing company as part of your task. On your first day of report, the owner wants to know if their furnace is still in condition, in which the heat loss per square meter should be at least 1,000 W/m2. The details of the furnace are as follows. The furnace wall is 1m by 1m. It is made up of 3 layers, in which the inner wall is made up of fire brick, followed an insulating brick and finally, red brick for the outer layer. You checked the inside surface temperature and got a temperature of 870oC which is 830oC hotter than the outer surface. Other data are provided from the furnace manual and specs. Co-efficient of thermal conduciveness and thickness of the layers are as follows: 1.0 W/m-K, thickness: 22 cm 0.12 W/m-K, thickness: 7.5 cm 0.75 W/m-K, thickness: 11 cm
