As a designer working for a major electric appliance manufacturer, you are required to estimate the amount of fiberglass insulation packing (k = 0.035 W/m K) that is needed for a kitchen oven shown in the figure below. The fiberglass layer is to be sandwiched between a 2-mm-thick aluminum cladding plate on the outside and a 5-mm-thick stainless steel plate on the inside that forms the core of the oven. The insulation thickness is such that the outside cladding temperature does not exceed 40C when the temperature at the inside surface of the oven is 300C. Also, the air temperature in the kitchen varies from 15Cto33C, and the average heat transfer coefficient between the outer surface of the oven and air is estimated to be 12.0W/m2K. Determine the thickness of the fiberglass insulation that is required for these conditions. What would be the outer surface temperature when the inside surface of the oven is at 475C?

Posting it second time . Answer all else dont answer - You are using a silver spoon to stir water that just started boiling so that you can achieve a more even heat distribution in your water. The spoon is partially immersed in boiling water and a thermometer in your kitchen reads 27 °C. The handle of the spoon has a cross section of 2mm × 1cm and extends 15 cm in the air from the free surface of the water. The heat transfer coefficient at the exposed surfaces of the spoon handle is 3 W/m2 ×K. Part A : Determine the temperature difference across the exposed surface of the spoon handle. Follow the problem-solving guide on the front page. At the minimum, your analysis should answer the following questions providing detailed justifications:-What are the modes of heat transfer that the spoon is exposed to? -Is this a time dependent or steady state problem? Why or why not?-Is this a 1-D, 2-D or 3-D problem? Why or why not?- What is the thermal conductivity of the material?- The heat…
