1. Calculate the energy transfer rate across 6 inches wall of
firebrick with a temperature difference across the wall of 50⁰C.
The thermal conductivity of the firebrick is 0.65 BTU/hr·ft·⁰F at the
temperature interest.
Given: ΔT = 50⁰C = 90⁰F; x = 0.6 in = 0.5 ft ; k = 0.65 BTU/hr-ft-F⁰
Required: Energy Transfer Rate
Formula and Solution:
Q/A = [0.65(90)]/0.5 = 117 (3.153) = 368.901 W/m2
2. Calculate the thermal diffusivity of pure aluminum with density
of 2702 kg/m3, thermal conductivity of 237 W/m-K and specific
heat of 0.903 kJ/kg-K.
Given: p = 2702 kg/m3 ; k = 237 W/m-K ; Cp = 0.903 kJ/kg-K
Required: Thermal Diffusity
α = k/p Cp = 237/(2702) (0.903) [0.001/1] = 97.15 x 10-6 m2/s
3. Consider a steam of pipe length L=20 cm, inner radius r=6 cm,
outer radius of 8 cm, and thermal conductivity k=20W/m-K. the
inner and outer surfaces of the pipe are maintained at average
temperatures of T1 =150⁰C and T2 =60⁰C, respectively. Determine the
rate of heat loss from the steam through the pipe.
Given: L = 20cm = 0.2m ; ri = 6cm = 0.06m ; ro = 8cm = 0.08m ;
k = 20W/m-k ; T1=150⁰C = 423.16K ; T2=60⁰C = 333.10K
Required: Rate of Heat Loss
Q = 2πkL[(T1 - T2)/ln (ro/ ri)]
Q = 2π (20) (0.2) [(423.16 – 333.16)/ln (0.08/0.06)]
Q = 7862.67 W
4. A refrigerator stands in a room where the temperature is 20⁰C. The
surface temperature on the outside of the refrigerator is 16⁰C. The
sides are 30 mm thick and have an equivalent thermal conductivity
of 0.1 W/m-K. The heat transfer coefficient on the outside is 10
W/m²-K. Assuming one-dimensional conduction through the sides,
calculate the net heat flow and the surface temperature on the
inside.
Given: x = 30mm = 0.003m ; TR = 20°C ; To = 16.0°C ; K = 0.1 W/m-K ;
h = 10W/m2-K
Required: (a) Net Heat Flow and (b) Surface Temp on the inside
(a) q = h ΔT = (10) / (16 – 20) = –40 W/m2
(b) Tsi = 16 + [(0.03) (–40)]/0.1 = 4°C
5. Solve the critical radius in cm for an asbestos-cement covered
pipe (k=0.208 W/m-K). The external heat transfer coefficient is 1.5
BTU/hr-ft²-⁰F.
Given: k = 0.208 W/m-k ; h = 1.5 BTU/hr-ft-⁰F
Required: Critical Radius 5.675W/m2 ⁰F = 1 BTU/hr-ft²-⁰F
CRA = k/h
0.208/[(1.5) (5.673/1)] = 0.0244m
CRA = 2.44cm
6. A 3-mm diameter and 5-m long electric wire is tightly wrapped
with a 2-mm thick plastic cover whose thermal conductivity is
k=0.15 W/m-⁰C. Electrical measurement indicates that a current of
10A passing through the wire and there is a voltage drop of 8V
along the wire. If the insulated wire is exposed to a medium at 30⁰C,
with the heat transfer coefficient h=12 W/m²-⁰C, determine the
temperature interface of the wire.
Given: k = 0.15 W/m²-⁰C ; I = 10 A ; V = 8 V ; T = 30⁰C ; h = 12 W/m2²-⁰C
L = 5 m ; d = 0.003m
Required: Temperature Interface ; Ti
Q = VI ; Q = (Ti – T)/Rtotal
Ti = Q Rtotal + T
(For Rtotal)
A2 = 2πrL = 2π(0.035) (5) = 0.1099
Rlow = 1/h A2 = 1/(12) (0.1099) = 0.76
Rplastic = ln (r2/r1) / 2πkL = ln (3.5/1.5)/ 2π (0.15) (5) = 0.18
Rtotal = Rlow + Rplastic = 0.76 + 0.18 = 0.9376
Ti = 80 (0.9376) + 30
Ti = 105.01 ⁰C
7. Surface A is coated with white paint and is maintained at
temperature of 200⁰C. It is located directly opposite to surface B
which can be considered a black body and is maintained at
temperature of 800⁰C. What is the total amount of energy
radiated by the black body? Calculate also the amount of heat to
be removed from surface a per unit area to maintain its constant
temperature.
Given: TA = 200⁰C ; TB = 800⁰C ; E = 1 ; σ = 5.67 x 10-8 W/m2 -K4
Required: (a) Energy Radiated and (b) Heat to be Removed
(a) Qradiated
Q = E σ A Ts
Qradiated = (1) (5.67x10-8) (1) (800 + 273.16 K) 4
Qradiated = 75.20 kW
(b) Qremoved
Q = E σ A Ts
Qremoved = (1) (5.67x10-8) (1) [(800 + 273.16) – (200 + 273.16)]
Qremoved = 72.36 kW
