The onset of free convection. Plastic shrink wrap can be used to insulate windows by trapping air between your window and the wrapping. Calculate the critical gap width between the plastic and the window at which free convection will occur on an average winter’s day, when the outside temperature is 41°F and the inside temperature is 68°F. Would you expect there to be more or less heat transfer when the spacing is above this gap? Explain.
Take your time for solving problem. But also take the proper given values and solve the problem correctly.
Question One
Explain how heat is transferred from one point to another illustrating with appropriate diagram.
Calculate the heat flow per square meter (heat flux) through water medium with thermal conductivity of 0.6, flowing in a 5 cm thickness space, if the temperatures on the two surfaces are 50 and 210°C, respectively.
Question 2
Distinguish between force and free convection with the aid of appropriate illustrations.
What is the approximate temperature difference between a hot plate and the surrounding air if the heat flux from the plate is 800 W/m2? Assume that the air is flowing past the surface with a velocity of 5 m/s giving a heat transfer coefficient of 20 W/(m2K).
Question 3
Explain the differences between laminar and turbulent flow
Water (ν = 0.86x10-6m2/s) flows through a tube with the diameter 12 mm at a velocity of 2 m/s. Determine if the flow is laminar or turbulent!

The vacuum, and absence of air/oxygen, facilitates a low contamination process and prevents detrimental surface oxidisation. Heat is often provided in these furnaces by electrical heating elements, and their thermal design is critical to the effective operation of the furnace. In one such case, this element is modelled as a long, cylindrical electrically heated rod, 20 mm in diameter installed in a vacuum furnace as shown. The surface of the heating rod has an emissivity of 0.9 and is maintained at 1000 K, while the interior walls of the furnace are black and are at 800 K. Calculate the net rate at which heat is lost from the rod per unit length.arrow_forward
