A spherical interplanetary probe of 0.5m diameter contains electronics that dissipate 150 W. If the probe surface has an emissivity of 0.8 and it does not receive radiation from other surfaces, such as the sun, what is its surface temperature of the probe?

A blood warmer is to be used during the transfusion of blood to a patient. This device is to heat blood taken from the Blood Bank at 10°C to 37°C at a flow rate of 200 mL/min. The blood passes through tubing of length 2 m, with a rectangular cross-section of 6.4 mm x 1.6…

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 degree C. From reliability considerations, the chip temperature…

An electric resistance heater is embedded in a long cylinder of diameter 30mm. When water with a temperature of 25degree C and velocity of 1 m/s flows crosswise over the cylinder, the power per unit length required to maintain the surface at a uniform temperature of 90degreeC is 28kW/m. When air is also at 25…

You’ve experienced convection cooling if you’ve ever extended your hand out the window of a moving vehicle or into a flowing water stream. With the surface of your hand at a temperature of 30 °C. determine the convection heat flux for a vehicle speed of 35 km/h in air at -5 °C with a convection…
