Water at a temperature of 77C is to be evaporated slowly in a vessel. The water is in a low-pressure container surrounded by steam as shown in the sketch below. The steam is condensing at 107C. The overall heat transfer coefficient between the water and the steam is 1100W/m2K. Calculate the surface area of the container that is required to evaporate water at a rate of 0.01 kg/s.

1.67 In beauty salons and in homes, a ubiquitous device is the hairdryer. The front end of a typical hairdryer is idealized as a thin-walled cylindrical duct with a 6-cm diameter with a fan at the inlet that blows air over an electric heating coil as schematically shown in the figure. The design of this appliance requires two power settings, with which the air blown over the electric heating coil is heated from the ambient temperature of to an outlet temperature of and with exit air velocities of 1.0 m/s and 1.5 m/s. Estimate the electric power required for the heating coil to meet these conditions, assuming that heat loss from the outside of the dryer duct is neglected.
2.30 An electrical heater capable of generating 10,000 W is to be designed. The heating element is to be a stainless steel wire having an electrical resistivity of ohm-centimeter. The operating temperature of the stainless steel is to be no more than 1260°C. The heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is expected to be no less than in a medium whose maximum temperature is 93°C. A transformer capable of delivering current at 9 and 12 V is available. Determine a suitable size for the wire, the current required, and discuss what effect a reduction in the heat transfer coefficient would have. (Hint: Demonstrate first that the temperature drop between the center and the surface of the wire is independent of the wire diameter, and determine its value.)
A cooling system is to be designed for a food storage warehouse for keeping perishable foods cool prior to transportation to grocery stores. The warehouse has an effective surface area of 1860 m2 exposed to an ambient air temperature of 32C. The warehouse wall insulation (k=0.17W/(mK)) is 7.5 cm thick. Determine the rate at which heat must be removed (W) from the warehouse to maintain the food at 4C.

The air conditioner consumes about 1 kW of electricity for every 4 kW of cooling supplied and two wall construction are to be compared on the basis of cooling costs. Assume that electricity costs S0.15/kWh. Determine the electrical energy savings per week of using 260 mm of fiberglass batt insulation to the steel sheet wall (U-0.17 W/m² "C) instead of 159 mm of fiberglass insulation (U-0.31 W/m² °C) assuming an overall temperature difference of 20 °C across the wall.
