Determine the rate of heat transfer per meter length from a 5-cm-OD pipe at 150C placed eccentrically within a larger cylinder of 85 magnesia wool as shown in the sketch. The outside diameter of the larger cylinder is 15 cm and the surface temperature is 50C.
An electronic device that internally generates 600 mW of heat has a maximum permissible operating temperature of 70C. It is to be cooled in 25C air by attaching aluminum fins with a total surface area of 12cm2. The convection heat transfer coefficient between the fins and the air is 20W/m2K. Estimate the operating temperature when the fins are attached in such a way that (a) there is a contact resistance of approximately 50 K/W between the surface of the device and the fin array and (b) there is no contact resistance (in this case, the construction of the device is more expensive). Comment on the design options.
