    HRR - Thermal Penetration Time

    Uploaded by

    MEHBOOB SHAIKH
    The document discusses thermal penetration time, which is the time required for heat to conduct through a material. It uses the analogy of sugar dissolving in coffee to explain heat conduction via thermal diffusion. It then provides an example calculation of thermal penetration time using the formula t = x^2/12α, where t is time, x is distance or length, and α is thermal diffusivity. For a polyurethane wall 0.05m thick, the calculated thermal penetration time is 174 seconds.

    Thermal Penetration Time for Conductive Heat Transfer

    Thermal diffusivity(Motion of Heat) with an analogy of motion of dissolution


    of sugar lump in a cup of coffee
    Molecules of sugar and
    coffee will mix together and
    the concentration of sugar
    will raise.

    Similarly heat conduction propagation


    within the CUP OF COFFEE is due to
    thermal diffusion or the diffusion of heat
    that excites neighboring molecules
    What do you think. How much time
    will it take to feel hotness of coffee
    on the surface of cup…?
    Lets understand this with analogy of
    So how fast this thermal diffusion
    diffusion of sugar lump in a cup of
    will take place..? Or lets call it
    coffee !!
    what will be
    PENETRATION TIME …?

    Thermal Penetration Time for Conductive Heat Transfer

    How Fast Thermal diffusivity will take place..?

    Example : Calculate Penetration time of below Given figure


    Where,
    x = Distance or length
    𝒙𝟐 α = k/ρc
    𝑻𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒎𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆(𝟏%) 𝒕 =
    12α K = Thermal Conductivity
    Polyurethane wall
    ρ = Density
    c = Specific Heat

    (𝟎. 𝟎𝟓)𝟐
    𝑻𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒎𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆 𝒕 =
    12( 𝟏. 𝟐 ∗ 𝟏𝟎^ − 𝟔)

    𝑻𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒎𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆 𝒕 = 𝟏𝟕𝟒 𝑺𝒆𝒄.

    Oh yes…after 174 sec I can feel the thermal


    effect(hotness)on the other side of wall !!!
