SOL 7.9 Option (B) is correct.

Given, d = 5 mm = 0.005 m , l = 100 mm = 0.1 m , k = 400 W/m K
T0 = 130c C , Ta = 30c C , h = 40 W/m2 K
Heat loss by the fin is given by,
Q fin = mkAc (T0 − Ta) tanh (ml) ...(i)

SOL 7.10 Option (B) is correct.

Given : T1 = 30c C , T2 = 100c C , k = 1.0 W/mK ,
T = 30 + 70 exp (− y) ...(i)

Under steady state conditions,

Heat transfer by conduction= Heat transfer by convection
− kA dT = hAΔT A " Area of plate
dy
− kA d (30 + 70e−y) = hAΔT
dy
Solving above equation, we get
− kA (− 70e−y) = hAΔT
At the surface of plate, y = 0
Hence 70kA = hAΔT

h = 70kA = 70k = 70 # 1 = 1 W/m2 K

AΔT ΔT (100 − 30)

SOL 7.11 Option (B) is correct.

Given :
Coh = Coc , m
o h = 1 kg/ sec , c ph = 4 kJ/kg K , th1 = 102c C , tc1 = 15c C
U = 1 kW/m2 K , A = 5 m2
