Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer Seventh Edition Problem – 1.23

A square isothermal chip is of width w = 5 mm on a side and is mounted in a substrate such that its side and back surfaces are well insulated, while the front surface is exposed to the flow of a coolant at T_infinity = I5 °C. From reliability considerations, the chip temperature must not…

The free convection heat transfer coefficient on a thin hot vertical plate suspended in still air can be determined from observations of the change in plate temperature with time as it cools. Assuming the plate is isothermal and radiation exchange with its surroundings is negligible, evaluate the convection coefficient at the instant of time when…

A glass window of width W= 1 m and height H = 2 m is 5 mm thick and has a thermal conductivity of kg 1.4 W/m·K. If the inner and outer surface temperatures of the glass are 15°C and -20°C, respectively, on a cold winter day, what is the rate of heat loss through…

Abstract: The purpose of this lab was to determine the effect of stirring and the hot water flow rate on the overall heat transfer coefficient. Based on the law of thermodynamics heat always travels from hot to cold but the rate of heat transfer is expected to be enhanced by the introduction of stirring. During…
