Heat Transfer Problems in Engineering

This document contains 5 problems related to heat transfer and thermodynamics. The problems involve calculating temperatures, heat transfer rates, and time required for heating or cooling of objects under given conditions. Materials include stainless steel, electronics, apples, chickens, and granite blocks. Parameters specified include initial and ambient temperatures, material properties, geometries, heat transfer coefficients, and time periods. The goal is to determine center and surface temperatures, amount of heat transfer, and if freezing will occur over time.

kJ/kgC, and = 3.91* 10 m /s) having a diameter of 1.2 cm are to be quenched in

water. The balls leave the oven at a uniform temperature of 900C and are exposed to air

at 30C for a while before they are dropped into the water. If the temperature of the

balls is not to fall below 850C prior to quenching and the heat transfer coefficient in

the air is 125 W/m C, determine how long they can stand in the air before being

dropped into the water.

425 An electronic device dissipating 30 W has a mass of 20 g, a specific heat of 850

2
J/kg C, and a surface area of 5 cm .The device is lightly used, and it is on for 5 min

and then off for several hours, during which it cools to the ambient temperature of

2
25C. Taking the heat transfer coefficient to be 12 W/ m C, determine the

temperature of the device at the end of the 5-min operating period. What would your

answer be if the device were attached to an aluminum heat sink having a mass of 200 g

2
and a surface area of 80 cm ? Assume the device and the heat sink to be nearly

isothermal.

who are about to arrive. Initially, the apples are at a uniform temperature of 20C, and

chicken to be 0.95 g/ cm and treating the chicken as a spherical lump, determine the

center and the surface temperatures of the chicken in 2 h and 30 min. Also, determine if

any part of the chicken will freeze during this process.
