Invent a numerical method for calculating the steady heat flux through a plane
wall when k(T) is an arbitrary function. Use the method to predict q in an iron slab
1cm thick if the temperature varies from 100 C on the left to 400 C on the right.
How far would you have erred if you had taken kave = (kleft + kright) / 2 ?

The steady heat flux at one side of a slab is a known value qo. The thermal
conductivity varies with temperature in the slab, and the variation can be
expressed with a power series as
i =n
k = AiT i

(a) Start with eqn. (2.10) and derive an equation that relates T to position in the slab,
x. (b) Calculate the heat flux at any position in the wall from this expression using
Fouriers law. Is the resulting q a function of x ?

0.5 kg/s of air at 20 C moves along a channel that is 1 m from wall to wall. One
wall of the channel is a heat exchange surface (U = 300 W/m2.K) with steam
condensing at 120 C on its back. Determine (a) q at the entrance; (b) the rate of
increase of temperature of the fluid with x at the entrance; (c) the temperature and
heat flux 2 m downstream.
Solution:
m& = 0.5 kg/s
T1 = 20 C
L=1m
U = 300 W/m2.K
T = 120 C
(a) At the entrance
q = U (T T1 ) = (300 W/m2.K)(120 C 20 C) = 30,000 W/m2
(b) At the entrance

either side. U is 255 W/m2.K and the overall temperature difference is 200 C. One layer

A student working heat transfer problems late at night needs a cup of hot cocoa to
stay awake. She puts milk in a pan on an electric stove and seeks to heat it as
rapidly as she can, without burning the milk, by turning the stove on high and
stirring the milk continuously. Explain how this works using an analogous
electric circuit. Is it possible to bring the entire bulk of the milk up to the burning
temperature without burning part of it?
Solution:
If you put the milk into a hot pan and leave it undisturbed the milk closest to the source
of the heat will reach the burn temperature quickly and scorch.
If you stir the milk constantly, the movement will keep redistributing the added heat
throughout the milk so it heats up more uniformly. When the more uniformly heated milk
reaches the same burn temperature, it will scorch.
Milk get scorched at 185 F (85 C), which makes it taste unpleasant.

With reference to Fig. 2.3, develop an empirical equation for k(T) for ammonia
vapor. Then imagine a hot surface at Tw parallel with a cool horizontal surface at
a distance H below it. Develop equations for T(x) and q. Compute q if Tw = 350
C, Tcool = -5 C, H = 0.15 m.
Solution:
From Fig. 2.3, ammonia vapor is nearly a straight line, use k = a + bT
T = 0 C, k = 0.0234 W/m.K
T = 100 C, k = 0.0498 W/m.K
Then a = 0.0234, b = 2.64 x 10-4

There is a negligible drop in temperature in stainless steel pipe, insulation and the
inside film coefficient. The dominant factor is the outside film coefficient .
Two highly reflecting, horizontal plates are passed 0.0005 m apart. The upper one
is kept at 1000 C and the lower one at 200 C. There is air in between. Neglect
radiation and compute the heat flux and the midpoint temperature in the air. Use a
power-law fit of the form k = a (T 0C)b to represent the air data in Table A.6.

You are in charge of energy conservation at your plant. There is a 300 m run of 6
in. O.D. pipe carrying steam at 250 C. The company requires that any insulation
must pay for itself in one year. The thermal resistance are such that the surface of
the pipe will stay close to 250 C in air at 25 C when h = 10 W/m2.K. Calculate
the annual energy savings in kW.h that will result if a1 in layer of 85 % magnesia
insulation is added. If energy is worth 6 cents per kW.h and insulation costs $75
per installed linear meter, will the insulation pay for itself in one year?
