Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer – Problem 2.10

ByAnthony

A one-dimensional plane wall of thickness 2L=100mm experiences uniform thermal energy generation of q dot=1000 W/m3 and is convectively cooled at x=+/-50mm by an ambient fluid characterized by T infinity=20°C. If the steady-state temperature distribution within the wall is T(x)=a(L2-x2)+b where a=10 °C /m2 and b=30 °C, what is the thermal conductivity of the wall? What is the value of the convection heat transfer coefficient, h?

An array of 10 silicon chips, each of length L=10 mm on a side, is insulated on one surface and cooled on the opposite surface by atmospheric air in parallel flow with T∞​=24°C and u∞​=40m/s. When in use, the same electrical power is dissipated in each chip, maintaining a uniform heat flux over the entire cooled surface….

Experimental results for heat transfer over a flat plate with an extremely rough surface were found to be correlated by an expression of the form Nux=0.04 Rex0.9 Pr1/3 where Nux is the local value of the Nusselt number at a position x measured from the leading edge of the plate. Obtain an expression for the ratio of the average heat transfer coefficient hˉx to the local coefficient hx
