Solve for this : An engine cover is made from 1 cm thick stainless steel plate (k = 14 W/m K). Air on the inside of the engine cover is heated to 340°C with a heat transfer coefficient of 7 W/m2K. Outside of the engine coverthe ambient air has a temperature of 70°C. If oil was spilled on the outside of the engine cover (ambient side), it could ignite if the surface temperature were to exceed 200°C. In this configuration, would spilled oil ignite? Use calculations to justify your answer. If a 4 mm thermal coating (k = 1.1 W/m K) was applied tothe outside of the engine, what would the outside temperature of the engine cover be reduced to?
QUESTION 3: Warm air is blown over the inner surface of the windshield of an automobile to defrost ice accumulated on the outer surface. The windshield has a thickness of 5 mm and thermal conductivity of 1.4 W/m-K. The outside ambient temperature is -10°C and the convection heat transfer coefficient is 200 W/m²-K, while the ambient temperature inside the automobile is 25°C. Determine the value of the convection heat transfer coefficient for the warm air blowing over the inner surface of the windshield necessary to cause the accumulated ice to begin melting.
One side of a copper (401 W/m-oC) block 5 cm thick is maintained at 175 oC, the other side is covered with fiberglass (k = 0.026 W/m-0C) 2.5 cm thick. The outside of the block is maintained at 38 oC, and the total heat flow is 44 kW. Find the overall heat transfer coefficient. (four decimal places for final answer)
