1.A pipe consists of 100 mm internal diameter and 8 mm thickness carries steam at 170°C. The
convective heat transfer coefficient on the inner surface of pipe is 75 W/m2C. The pipe is insulated by two layers of insulation. The first layer of insulation is 46 mm in thickness having thermal conductivity of 0.14 W/m⁰C. The second layer of insulation is also 46 mm in thickness having thermal conductivity of 0.46 W/m⁰C. Ambient air temperature = 33°C. The convective heat transfer coefficient from the outer surface of pipe = 12 W/m2C. Thermal conductivity of steam pipe = 46 W/m⁰C. Calculate the heat loss per unit length of pipe and determine the interface temperatures. Suggest the materials used for insulation. (16)
2. . A composite wall is formed of a 2.5 cm copper plate (k = 355 W/mK), a 3.2 mm layer of asbestos (k = 0.110 W/mK) and a 5 cm layer of fiber plate (k = 0.049 W/mK). The wall is subjected to an overall temperature difference of 560°C (560°C on the Cu plate side and 0°C on the fiber plate side). Estimate the heat flux through this composite all and the interface temperature between asbestos and fiber plate. (16)
3. (i) A furnace wall consists of three layers. The inner layer of 10 cm thickness is made of firebrick (k =1.04 W/mK). The intermediate layer of 25 cm thickness is made of masonry brick (k = 0.69 W/mK) followed by a 5 cm thick concrete wall (k = 1.37 W/mK). When the furnace is in continuous operation the inner surface of the furnace is at 800°C while the outer concrete surface is at 50°C. Calculate the rate of heat loss per unit area of the wall, the temperature at the interface of the firebrick and masonry brick and the temperature at the interface of the masonry brick and concrete.
