    Heat Transfer (EME 314) Extra problems
    Supervisor : Dr. Asmaa Attya

    1. The heat generated in the circuitry on the surface of a


    silicon chip (k=130 W/m.°C) is conducted to the ceramic
    substrate to which it is attached. The chip is 6 mm×6 mm
    in size and 0.5 mm thick and dissipates 3W of power.
    Disregarding any heat transfer through the 0.5 mm-high
    side surfaces, determine the temperature difference
    between the front and back surfaces of the chip in steady
    operation.

    2. A transistor with a height of 0.4 cm and a diameter of


    0.6 cm is mounted on a circuit board. The transistor is
    cooled by air flowing over it with an average heat transfer
    coefficient of 30 W/𝐦 .°C. If the air temperature is 55°C
    and the transistor case temperature is not to exceed 70°C,
    determine the amount of power this transistor can
    dissipate safely. Disregard any heat transfer from the
    transistor base.

    3. A 2-in-diameter spherical ball whose surface is maintained at a temperature of


    170°F is suspended in the middle of a room at 70°F. If the convection heat transfer
    coefficient is 12 Btu/h. 𝐟𝐭 .°F and the emissivity of the surface is 0.8, determine the
    total rate of heat transfer from the ball.

    4. The outer surface of a spacecraft in space has an emissivity of 0.8 and a solar
    absorptivity of 0.3. If solar radiation is incident on the spacecraft at a rate of 950
    W/𝐦 , determine the surface temperature of the spacecraft when the radiation
    emitted equals the solar energy absorbed.

    5. A 3-m-internal-diameter spherical tank made of 1-cm thick stainless steel is used


    to store iced water at 0°C. The tank is located outdoors at 25°C. Assuming the entire
    steel tank to be at 0°C and thus the thermal resistance of the tank to be negligible,
    determine (a) the rate of heat transfer to the iced water in the tank and (b) the
    amount of ice at 0°C that melts during a 24-hour period. The heat of fusion of water
    at atmospheric pressure is 𝐡 𝐟 =333.7 kJ/kg. The emissivity of the outer surface of the
    tank is 0.6, and the convection heat transfer coefficient on the outer surface can be
    taken to be 30 W/𝐦 .°C. Assume the average surrounding surface temperature for
    radiation exchange to be 15°C.

    6. A thin metal plate is insulated on the back and exposed to solar radiation on the
    front surface. The exposed surface of the plate has an absorptivity of 0.7 for solar
    radiation. If solar radiation is incident on the plate at a rate of 700 W/𝐦 and the
    surrounding air temperature is 10°C, determine the surface temperature of the plate
    when the heat loss by convection equals the solar energy absorbed by the plate. Take
    the convection heat transfer coefficient to be 30 W/𝐦 .°C, and disregard any heat
    loss by radiation.

    7. Consider a flat plate solar collector placed at the roof of a house. The
    temperatures at the inner and outer surfaces of glass cover are measured to be 28°C
    and 25°C, respectively. The glass cover has a surface area of 2.2. 𝐦 and a thickness
    of 0.6 cm and a thermal conductivity of 0.7 W/m.°C. Heat is lost from the outer
    surface of the cover by convection and radiation with a convection heat transfer
    coefficient of 10 W/m .°C and an ambient temperature of 15°C. Determine the
    fraction of heat lost from the glass cover by radiation.
