SECTION B Please attempt THREE questions only from this section All required tables are provided
Question (2) A wall is constructed of one layer of common brick (k=0.72 W/m.oC) of thickness 20 cm, one inside layer of light weight plaster (k=0.36 W/m.oC) of thickness 1 cm, and one outside layer of cement based covering (k=1.4 W/m.oC) of thickness 2 cm. The inner surface of the wall is maintained at 23 oC while the outer surface is exposed to outdoors at 8 oC with a combined convection and radiation heat transfer coefficient of 17 W/m2.oC. Determine the rate of heat transfer through the wall and temperature drops across the plaster and brick if the wall is 6 m wide and 2.8 m high. [22 marks] Question (3) Hot exhaust gases leaving a stationary diesel engine at 450C enter a l5 cm diameter pipe at an average velocity of 3.6 m/s. The surface temperature of the pipe is 180C. Determine the pipe length if the exhaust gases are to leave the pipe at 250C. You may use properties of air and assume fully developed turbulent flow. Also, you may assume that the reference temperature is 350 oC. [22 marks]

Question (4) An average person generates heat at a rate of 84 W while resting, figure Q4. Assuming one quarter of this heat is lost from the head by convection, determine the average surface temperature of the head when it is not covered and is subjected to winds at 10C and 35 km/h. The head can be approximated as a 30 cm diameter sphere. You may use the value of dynamic viscosity at surface temperature as s 1.802105 kg/m.s Air [22 marks] Head
V = 35 km/h T = 10C
D = 0.3 m
Q = 21 W
Figure Q4 Question (5) Steam in the condenser of a steam power plant is to be condensed at a temperature of 50C with cooling water (Cp =4180 J/kg C) from a nearby lake, which enters the tubes of the condenser at 18C and leaves at 27C. The surface area of the tubes is 58 m2, and the overall heat transfer coefficient is 2400 W/m2 C. Determine the mass flow rate of the cooling water needed. [22 marks]
