1. C, modes, conduction, convection and radiation.

2. A, Heat energy flows due to temperature difference.


3. B, Explanation: Q = (T2 – T1) A h = 0.12 (65-30) 45.4 = 190.68 W.
4. D, Explanation: Unit of heat transfer is Joule but rate of heat transfer is joule per second i.e.
watt.
5. A, Explanation: It is denoted by h and is dependent on space, time, geometry, orientation of
solid surface.
6. C, Explanation: It is directly proportional to all of above except time.
7. B, Explanation: Forced, natural and mixed convection.
8. D, Explanation: Thermal conductivity of diamond is 2300 W/m K.
9. A, Explanation: As, q = Q/A = 5.67 * 10-8 (273+60)4 = 697.2.
10. B, Explanation: In forced convection the flow of fluid is caused by a pump, fan or by
atmospheric winds.
11. D, Explanation: Thermal conductivity of a material is because of migration of free electrons
and lattice vibrational waves.
12. A, Explanation: For air it is .024 W/ m degree i.e. lowest.
13. C, Explanation: For ice it is 2.25 W/m degree i.e. maximum.
14. B, Explanation: For water it is 0.55-0.7 W/m degree and for air it is .024 W/m degree.
15. D, Explanation: Glass wool has lowest thermal conductivity of 0.03 W/m degree amongst
given option.
16. B, Explanation: For good conductors there must be electrons that are free to move.
17. A, Explanation: If there is elastic collision then after sometime molecules regain its natural
position.
18. C, Explanation: It is because air has lowest value of thermal conductivity amongst given
options.
19. D, Explanation: Cork has thermal conductivity in the range of 0.05-0.10 which is very low so
it can be porous.
20. B, Explanation: Thermal conductivity increase with increase in density of substance.
21. B, Explanation: It is given by h l/k.
22. B, Explanation: Reynolds number is indicative of the relative importance of inertial and
viscous effects in a fluid motion.
23. D, Explanation: Reynolds number constitutes an important criterion of kinematic and
dynamic similarity in forced convection heat transfer.
24. C
25. B
26. B, Explanation: The purpose of fins is to increase the area. Fins are used where air cooled
condensers are used.
