- 2.30 An electrical heater capable of generating 10,000 W is to be designed. The heating element is to be a stainless steel wire having an electrical resistivity of ohm-centimeter. The operating temperature of the stainless steel is to be no more than 1260°C. The heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is expected to be no less than in a medium whose maximum temperature is 93°C. A transformer capable of delivering current at 9 and 12 V is available. Determine a suitable size for the wire, the current required, and discuss what effect a reduction in the heat transfer coefficient would have. (Hint: Demonstrate first that the temperature drop between the center and the surface of the wire is independent of the wire diameter, and determine its value.)arrow_forwardWhat is the rate of heat transfer through a piece of Celotex 3 ft by 8 ft by 1 in. in thickness, if the temp of one surface is 80°F and of the other side is 60°F? thermal conductivity of Celotex in AES = 0.028.

The base of the heat sink has dimensions of w1 = W2 = 100 mm, while the 6 fins are of thickness t = 10 mm and pitch S = 18 mm. The fin length is Lr = 50 mm, and the base of the heat sink has a thickness of Lb = 10 mm.

- Build a spreadsheet to do the step by step method for estimating the temperature of unprotected steel work exposed to the ASTM E119 Standard Fire. Assume a convective heat transfer coefficient of 25 W/m2K and an emissivity of 0.5. Assume the specific heat to remain constant at 600 J/kgK. Use a time step of 30 seconds and an ambient temperature of 20°C. Provide an Excel plot showing the curves of the fire and a steel member through a time of 60 minutes with F/V ratios of: a)25 m-1 b)100 m-1 c)200 m-1 d)300 m-1 Note your plot should contain 5 curves. One for the fire and one for each of the F/V values.

If 60% of the potential energy lost in the drop could be converted to thermal energy used to heat the copper from an initial temperature of 25 degrees celsius, what would the final temperature of the copper wafer? Would the answer be different if the wafer has a mass greater than 3 grams? Note: the specific heat of copper is 387 J/(kg*K). The temperature is between 25.8 and 26.0 degrees celsius, yes the bigger the mass the greater the energy. O The temperature is between 25.6 and 25.8 celsius, answer does not depend on mass. O The temperature is between 25.0 and 25.2 celsius, answer does not depend on mass. O The temperature is 25.5 and of course the more mass something has the greater energy will be needed to raise the temperature. The temperature is 26.2 and if the mass is doubled so will be the change in temperature. O The temperature is 25.9 degrees celsius and the answer does not depend on mass. O The…arrow_forward4.
