Task 3Superheated steam at 575ºC is routed from a boiler to the turbine of an electric power plant through steel tubes (k = 35 W/m K) of 300 mm inner diameter and 30 mm wall thickness. To reduce heat loss to the surroundings and to maintain a safe-to-touch outer surface temperature, a layer of calcium silicate insulation (k = 0.10 W/m K) is applied to the tubes, while degradation of the insulation is reduced by degradation of the insulation is reduced by wrapping it in a thin sheet of aluminium having an emissivity of ε= 0.20. The air and wall temperatures of the power plant are 27ºC. Assume that the inner surface temperature of a steel tube corresponds to that of the steam and the convection coefficient outside the aluminium sheet is 6 W/m2 K, (a) What is the minimum insulation thickness needed to ensure that the temperature of the aluminium does not exceed 50ºC?

You are designing a 3m x 3m floor with radiant heating. The floor has 12 parallel pex pipes (k = 40 W/mK) of L = 3m, OD = 25mm and ID = 20mm. Hot water (TInfintiy 1 = 90oC, h = 200 W/m2K) runs through the pipes continuously. The surface below the pipes is perfectly insulated. Above the pipes, there is a 3mm layer of bonding material (? = 12 W/mK) and a 9mm layer of tile (k = 2 W/mK). Above the tile, there is air (TInfinity 2 = 25oC, h = 20 W/m2K). Properties of Air: k = 0.025 W/mK, Pr = 0.72, v = 1.847 x 10−5, u = 16.84 x 10−6, p = 1.2 kg/m3, B = 1/Tf (ideal gas), Hint: Assume that the “layer” of pipe starts at the center point (e.g. for conduction purposes, the pipe is OD divided by 2 thick). For convection, consider the entire pipe surface. a) What is the total heat rate entering the room above the floor? b) What is the temperature of the top of the tile?

The pipe is covered with 3-cm-thick glass wool insulation with k = 0.05 W/m. °C. Heat is lost to surroundings at T2 = 5 °C by natural convection and radiation, with a combined heat transfer coefficient of h₂ = 18 W/m². °C. Taking the heat transfer coefficient inside the pipe to be h₁ = 60 W/m². °C, determine the temperature drops across the pipe and the insulation. The determination is based on a unit length of the pipe (L = 1 m). Assumptions 1. Heat transfer is one-dimensional since there is no indication of any change with time. 2. Heat transfer is one-dimensional since there is thermal symmetry about the centreline and no variation in the axial direction. 3. Thermal conductivities are constant. 4.
