Chapter 5, Problem 5.45P

The air-conditioning system in a Chevrolet van for use in desert climates is to be sized. The system is to maintain an interior temperature of 20°C when the van travels at 100 km/h through dry air at 30°C at night. If the top of the van is idealized as a flat plate 6 m long and 2 m wide and the sides as flat plates 3 m tall and 6 m long, estimate the rate at which heat must be removed from the interior to maintain the specified

Under steady-state conditions, air at a temperature of 20.0°C, pressure of 1.00 atm, and a velocity of 18.5 m/sec flows over the top surface of a flat-plate heater that is kept at a temperature of 135.0°C. The heater is a circular disk with a diameter of 0.50 meters. The air flowing over the top surface of the disk creates a drag force of 0.25 Newtons.   Using the modified Reynolds analogy, calculate the heat transfer rate from the top surface of the plate heater.
A heating system is to be designed to keep the wings of an aircraft cruising at a veloeity of 900 km/h above freezing temperatures during flight at 12.200-m altitude where the standard atmospheric conditions are -55.4°C and 188 kPa. Approximating the wing as a cylinder of elliptical cross section whose minor axis is 30 cm and disregarding radiation, determine the average convection heat transfer coefficient on the wing surface and the average rate of heat transfer per unit surface area.
Under conditions for which the same room temperature is maintained by a heating or cooling system, it is not uncommon for a person to feel chilled in the winter but comfortable in the summer.Consider a room whose air temperature is maintained at 18ºC throughout the year, while the walls of the room are nominally at 24°C and 14°C in the summer and winter, respectively. The exposed surface of a person in the room may be assumed to be at a temperature of 32°C throughout the year and to have an emissivity of 0.90. The coefficient associated with heat transfer by natural convection between the person and the room air is approximately 2 W/m2·K. Calculate the following.   a. heat flux due to convection in W / m^2 b. Heat flux due to radiation in the summer in W / m^2 c. Heat flux due to radiation in the winter in W / m^2
