Determine the steady state surface temperature of an electric cable, 25 cm in diameter,
which is suspended horizontally in still air in which heat is dissipated by the cable at a

rate of 27 W per meter of length. The air temperature is 30 .

An apparatus, used in an operating room to cool, consists of a coiled tube that is
immersed in an ice bath. Using this apparatus, blood, flowing at 0.006 m3/h, is to be

cooled from 40 to 30 . The inside diameter of the tube is 2.5 mm, and the surface
coefficient between the ice bath and outer tube surface is 500 W/m2.K. The thermal
resistance of the tube wall may be neglected.

Determine the required length of tubing to accomplish the desired cooling. Properties
of blood are the following:

A system for heating water with an inlet temperature of 25 to an exiting

temperature of 70 involves passing the water through a thick-walled tube with

inner and outer diameters of 25 and 45 mm, respectively. The outer tube surface is
well insulated, and the electrical heating within the tube wall provides for a uniform

generation of .

a. For a mass flow rate of water, , how long must the tube be to

achieve desired outlet temperature?

b. If the inner surface of the tube at the outlet is , what is the local
convective coefficient at this location?

Steel (AISI 1010) plates of thickness and length L = 1 m on a side are
conveyed from a heat treatment process and are concurrently cooled by

atmospheric air of velocity and in parallel flow over

the plates.

For an initial plate temperature of , what is the rate of heat transfer from
the plate? What is the corresponding rate of change of the plate temperature? The
velocity of the air is much larger than that of the plate.

One hundred electrical components, each dissipating 25 W, are attached to one surface
of a square (0.2 m x 0.2 m) copper plate, and all the dissipated energy is transferred to
water in a parallel flow over the opposite surface.

A protuberance at the leading edge of the plate acts to trip the boundary layer, and the
plate itself may be assumed to be isothermal. The water velocity and temperature

and , and the water’s thermophysical properties may be

approximated as , and Pr = 5.2.
