hair dryer may be idealized as a circular duct through which a small fan draws ambient air and within which the air is heated as it flows over a coiled electric resistance wire. (1) If a dryer is designed to operate with an electric power consumption of Pelec= 1500 W and to heat air from an ambient temperature of Ti= 20°C to a discharge temperature of To= 45°C, at what volumetric flow rate ∀˙ should the fan operate?

1. Consider an opaque, horizontal square plate (Im by 1m) with an electrical heater on its backside. The front side is exposed to ambient quiescent air that is at 20° C, solar irradiation (from sun at 5800° K) of 600 W/m2, and an effective sky temperature of -40° C.

A wall panel is insulated on the back and exposed to solar radiation on the front surface. The exposed surface of the plate has an absorptivity α = 0.8 for radiation (i.e. 80% of radiant energy is absorbed). Solar radiation arrives to the panel at a rate of 1 kW⁄m2. The panel emissivity ϵ = 1 and the surrounding air temperature is 25°C. a. If we assume radiation is the only mechanism of heat transfer, in this scenario determine the...

The interior surface of an oven of internal dimensions 1mx1mx1m has an emissivity of 0.8, and is maintained at a uniform temperature of 500 K. The oven is placed in a very large room where the ambient temperature is 300K. On the front wall of the oven is a square opening of dimensions 100mmx 100mm. To reduce the heat loss through the opening, a thin metallic plate is used to cover the opening. The emissivity of the cover plate surface...
