Chapter 5, Problem 5.43P

A refrigeration truck is traveling at 130 km/h on a desert highway where the air temperature is 50°C . The body of the truck is idealized as a rectangular box 3 m wide, 2.1 m high, and 6 m long, at a surface temperature 10°C . Assume that (1) the heat transfer from the front and back of the truck is neglected, (2) the stream does not separate from the surface, and (3) the boundary layer is turbulent over the whole surface. Calculate the required cooling rate of the refrigeration unit.

What is the rate of heat loss through a 4-cm Fiberglass wall of the inside temperature is 22 °C and the outside temperature is 45 °C and windy (17 kph) ? the area of the wall is 100 square meters. Include surface films. Assume the k-value for 4-cm fiberglass is 0.056 W/m. °C and the surface air film coefficient for windy velocity (17 kph) is 0.053 for out film and the inner film Rs value is 0.093 as per the surface film coefficient tables ?
Q : Engine oil at 80°C flows over a 10-m-long flat plate whose temperature is 30°C with a velocity of 2.5 m's. Determine the rate of heat transfer over the entire plate per unit width. Take the properties of the oil at film temperature
Calculate the convective heat transfer rate via the top and the two side walls of a refrigerated box trailer as shown in the figure. The trailer is cruising at a rate of 70 mph (31.3 m/s). The box trailer dimensions are 16 m long, 4.1 m high, and 2.6 m wide. Assume that the surface of the trailer is at uniform temperature of 10°C. The air temperature is 30°C. Because of the presence of the prime-mover in the front, the air flow can be assumed to be turbulent when it encounters the trailer. 187.4 kW Walls. Prime-mover 16 m 2.6 m
