    The document contains 7 heat transfer problems involving calculations of heat transfer coefficients, temperatures, heat fluxes, and insulation thickness. Problem 1 asks to calculate the effective heat transfer coefficient due to radiation between surfaces at 200C and 50C with an emissivity of 0.8. Problem 2 involves calculating properties like bulk fluid velocity, Reynolds number, convective heat transfer coefficient, wall heat flux, and temperature difference for laminar flow in a duct. Problem 3 asks for the required thickness of insulation on the outside of a furnace wall to limit heat loss to 1830 W/m^2, given the inner and outer surface temperatures and thermal conductivities of the wall and insulation materials.

    Draw a figure if necessary and show essential steps!!

    Problem 1: Determine effective heat transfer coefficient, hr, resulting from radiation heat
    transfer if the surrounding temperature is 200 0C and the surface temperature is 50 0C with
    emissivity of 0.8.

    Problem 2: A special-purpose oil flows at 𝑚̇ = 1.81 × 10−2 𝑠
    inside a duct with equilateral
    triangle cross-section (side length: 1mm) that is heated electrically at a rate of 76 W/m along the
    length direction. At a particular location where the flow and heat transfer are fully developed. For
    thermal properties, take k = 0.139 W/m-K, ρ = 854 kg/m3, cp = 2120 J/kg-K, and ν = 4.1 x 10-5 m2/s.
    If convective heat transfer coefficient in laminar flow regime is calculated by 3.1 k/Dh, Determine
    1) The bulk fluid velocity, 𝑉̅
    2) Reynolds number, Re
    3) Convective heat transfer coefficient, h
    4) Wall heat flux, q’’
    5) Temperature difference between wall and bulk fluid, ∆T

    Problem 3: A wall of a furnace 0.244 m thick is constructed of material having a thermal


    conductivity of 1.30 W/(m∙K). The wall will be insulated on the outside with material
    having an average thermal conductivity of 0.356 W/(m∙K). The thickness of the insulation
    must be such that the heat loss from the furnace will be equal to or less than 1830
    W/m2. The inner surface temperature is 1588 K and the outer surface temperature is
    299K. Calculate the thickness of insulation required.

    Problem 4: Estimate the heat transfer flow through the composite wall shown in Fig. 1
    for kA = 1 W/(m∙K), kB = 0.2 W/(m∙K), kC = 0.6 W/(m∙K), kD = 6 W/(mK). Assume: 1)
    surfaces of constant x are isothermal; 2) thickness is 1 m; and 3) no heat flow transverse
    to the x-direction.

    Problem 5: A furnace wall has 0.3 m-thick inner layer of fire-clay brick (k = 1.7 W/
    m·K), a 0.2 m-thick layer of kaolin brick (k = 0.12 W/ m K), and a 0.1 m-thick outer
    layer of face brick (k = 1.3 W/m K). The furnace gases are at 1400 K, and the ambient air
    is at 310 K. The inside and outside heat transfer coefficients are 100 and 15 W/m2 K,
    respectively.
    1) Determine the heat loss through a 4 m-high, 8 m-long wall.
    2) It is later decided that the face brick outside temperature should not exceed 320
    K. Can this constraint be met by increasing the thickness of the kaolin brick
    layer?

    Problem 6: A new building to be located in a cold climate is being designed with a


    basement that has an L =200-mm-thick wall. Inner and outer basement wall temperatures
    are Ti =20 °C and To = 0 °C , respectively. The architect can specify the wall material to be
    either aerated concrete block with kac =0.15 W/m·K, or stone mix concrete (ksm =1.4
    W/m·K). To reduce the conduction heat flux through the stone mix wall to a level
    equivalent to that of the aerated concrete wall, what thickness of extruded polystyrene sheet
    (kps =0.027 W/m·K) must be applied onto the inner surface of the stone mix concrete wall?
    Floor dimensions of the basement are 20 m + 30 m, and the expected rental rate is $50/m2/
    month. What is the yearly cost, in terms of lost rental income, if the stone mix concrete
    wall with polystyrene insulation is specified?

    Problem 7: The rear window of an automobile is defogged by passing warm air over its
    inner surface.
    (a) If the warm air is at T∞,i = 40 °C and the corresponding convection coefficient is hi =30
    W/m2·K, what are the inner and outer surface temperatures of 4-mm-thick window glass
    (k =1.4 W/m·K), if the outside ambient air temperature is T∞,o = -10 °C and the associated
    convection coefficient is ho = 60 W/m2·K?
    (b) In practice T∞,i and ho vary according to weather conditions and car speed. For values
    of ho = 2, 60, and 100 W/m2·K, compute and plot the inner and outer surface temperatures
    as a function of T∞,o for –30 °C ≤ T∞,o, ≤ 0°C.
