A metallic cylindrical casing of an exhaust pipe has inner radius $$50$$ $$mm$$ and wall thickness $$7$$ $$mm.$$ If the thermal conductivity of the material of the casing is $$50$$...

In a $$1$$ $$m$$ thick wall, the temperature distribution at a given instant is $$T\left( x \right) = {c_0} + {c_1}x + {c_2}{x^2}$$ where $$T$$ is in $${}^ \circ C$$ and $$x$$ is i...

Water $$\left( {{C_p} = 4.18\,kJ/kg.K} \right)$$ at $${80^ \circ }C$$ enters a counter flow heat exchanger with a mass flow rate of $$0.5kg/s.$$ Air $$\left( {{C_p} = 1\,kJ/kg.\,K}...

Which one of the following configurations has the highest fin effectiveness?

For an opaque surface, the absorptivity $$\left( \alpha \right),$$ transmissivity $$\left( \tau \right)$$ and reflectivity $$\left( \rho \right)$$ are related by the equation:

An industrial gas $$\left( {{C_p} = 1kJ/kgK} \right)$$ enters a parallel flow heat exchanger at $${250^ \circ }C$$ with a flow rate of $$2$$ $$kg/s$$ to heat a water stream. The wa...

Heat is being transferred convectively from a cylindrical nuclear reactor fuel rod of $$50mm$$ diameter to water at $${70^ \circ }C$$, under steady state condition, the rate of hea...

A long glass cylinder of inner diameter $$=0.03m$$ and outer diameter $$=0.05m$$ carries hot fluid inside. If the thermal conductivity of glass $$=1.05$$ $$W/mK,$$ the thermal resi...
