Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer Seventh Edition Problem -1.13

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…

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…

What are Low-E Windows? Low-E windows as defined by http://www.royalprime.com are windows that have two glass panes or more that selectively rejects certain energy which as a result, greatly decreases the amount of heat that transfer through the glass (window glossary, 2012). In this research paper I compare a standard egress double pane  double hung…

A spherical interplanetary probe of 0.5-m 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? All sample problems and notes are based on the following textbook: Fundamentals…

The heat flux through a wood slab 50 mm thick, whose inner and outer surface temperatures are 40 and 20 degree C. respectively, has been determined to be 40 W/m2. What is the thermal conductivity of the wood? All sample problems and notes are based on the following textbook: Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer…

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…
