A 12-by-12 in. open pan containing water at 140 °F is placed in the exact center of a 16-by-20 ft room having a ceiling temperature of 75°F. If the distance from the water surface to the ceiling is 10 ft and the ceiling is painted with an oil paint, what is the net radiant-heat exchange between the water surface and the ceiling?
Consider an alumınum pan used to cook food on top of an electric range. The bottom section of the pan has thickness of L = 0.3 cm and diameter of D = 20 cm. The electric heating unit transfers 800 W of power to the pan. During steady operation. the temperature of the inner surface of the pan is measured to be 110 C. Which of the following boundary conditions is correct during this cooking process; Waler 4. a. Nore of the options D. 25.46 KW/m- T-1)= 110 C %3D Oc T,-o 110 °C & 4x=L 800 W m- %3D d. 9=0 = 800 Wm?
