3. A stainless steel cylinder (18% Cr, 8% Ni) is heated to a uniform temperature of 200 oC and then allowed to cool
in an environment where the air temperature is maintained constant at 30 oC. The convection heat-transfer coefficient
may be taken as 200 W/m2.oC. The cylinder has a diameter of 10 cm (4-65)
a. If the length of the cylinder is 15 cm. Calculate the temperature of the geometric center of the cylinder after a time
of 10 min. Also calculate the heat loss.
b. If the length is infinite, calculate the axis temperature of the cylinder after 10 min exposure. Also calculate, at 10
min, the heat transfer rate from the surface.
4. Two parallel disks, 50 cm in diameter, are separated by a distance of 12.5 cm and enclosed by a large room at 300
K. One disk is maintained at a constant temperature of 800◦C and has an emissivity of 0.8. The other disk is perfectly
insulated and has an emissivity of 0.1. (8-28)
a. Calculate the net radiant energy lost by the disk maintained at 800◦C.
b. Calculate the net radiant energy lost by the disk maintained at 800◦C if we assume that the surfaces are
blackbodies.
5. A 5.0-cm-diameter long cylinder with T =800 K and emissivity of 0.7 is enclosed by a large room at 300 K. How
much will the radiant heat loss from the cylinder be decreased if it is enclosed by a cylindrical radiation shield having
d =10 cm and =0.2 on the inner and outer surfaces? Express as W/m of length. 8-139
6. Two large parallel planes are at T1 =800 K, emissivity 1 =0.3, T2 =400 K, emissivity 2 =0.7 and are separated by
a gray gas having emissivity of 0.2 and transmissivity of 0.8. Calculate the heat-transfer rate between the two planes
and the temperature of the gas using a radiation network. Compare with the heat transfer without presence of the
gas. (EXAMPLE 8-12)
