In problem 3.48, consider the steam pipe to be thick-walled instead of thin walled as in the original problem. A stainless steel (AIST 304) steam pipe of 0.20m outside diameter with wall thickness of 20mm is used to transport saturated steam ata pressure of 26.4 bar in a room for which the air temperature is 30°C and the convection heat transfer coefficient is 20 Wm’-K. What is the heat loss per unit length from the pipe if it is insulated with a S0mm-thick layer of insulation (magnesia, 85%)? The insulation surface has an emissivity of 0.8. Ignore the steam side convection resistance. Te «08 Stcom pipe (02m) Jow ss magnesia (SOmm) 72 ™™Wele Sot steam PRE thy ROD h20WIm-K, Tos 300 2. In problem 4.54, consider the effect of internal heat generation, qdot = 1x10°W/m’, for the beam of square cross-section (80mm by 80mm) with a boundary condition of 300°C on three sides and the bottom surface is exposed to convection at 100°C and h =10 W/m’-K. The beam has thermal conductivity of 2W/m-K. With a grid spacing of 40mm use a finite difference method to find the steady state temperatures T1 and T2. 3. Consider the effect of the following modifications to problem 5.100. The plane wall (k=1.5W/m-K, o= 7.5x10°m’/sec) has thickness of L=50mm and an initial uniform temperature of 25°C. Suddenly the surface at x=0 is exposed to surface heat flux of 2000W/m* and the surface at x=L is exposed to convection by a fluid for which the temperature is 50°C and the convective heat transfer coefficient is h=75 W/m?-K: With a Ax= 50mm and At= 200.0sec, use a finite difference method to find the temperatures TO and T] after one time step. 2h fm -K k ee 2b E MS [=< 5dmm—>l Tze a J p2000 Ye, —~ il TSO , Wa 7ifay — [I~ AX—>} 4.In problem 14.41, use the implicit finite difference method to estimate the time it takes for the hydrogen concentration to reach 1.2kmol/m’ at the center of the sheet. The large sheet of material 40mm thick initially contains dissolved hydrogen in a uniform concentration of 3.0kmol/m’. Suddenly the surface concentration of hydrogen is reduced to zero and maintained at that value on both surfaces. Using a Ax= 20mm use the implicit finite difference method to find the time required to bring the density of dissolved hydrogen to 1.2kmol/m? at the center of the sheet. The diffusivity of hydrogen in the material is 9x107m*/sec. nie toe ok Reo
