Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer Seventh Edition Problem -1.13

The thermal conductivity of a sheet of rigid, extruded insulation is reported to be k = 0.029 W/m·K, the measured temperature difference across a 20mm-thick sheet of the material is T1-T2 =10°C. (a) What is the heat flux through a 2m x 2m sheet of insulation? (b) What is the rate of heat transfer 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…

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…

A furnace for processing semiconductor materials is formed by a silicon carbide chamber that is zone-heated on the top section and cooled on the lower section. With the elevator in the lowest position, a robot arm inserts the silicon wafer on the mounting pins. In a production operation, the wafer is rapidly moved toward the…

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…
