10. a) A composite wall is formed of a 2.5 cm copper plate (k = 355 W/m.K), a 3.2 mm layer
of asbestos (k = 0.110 W/m.K) and a 5 cm layer of fibre plate (k = 0.049 W/m.K). The
wall is subjected to an overall temperature difference of 560°C (560°C on the Cu plate
side and O°C on the fiber plate side). Estimate the heat flux through this composite all
and the interface temperature between asbestos and fibre plate. (16)

b) Derive the Heat conduction Equation in Cylindrical coordinates. (16)
11. a) A steel tube k=43.26 W/mK of 5.08 cm ID and 7.62 cm OD is covered with 2.54 cm of
asbestos insulation k=0.208 W/mK. The inside surface of the tube receives heat by
convection from a hot gas at a -temperature of 316°C with heat transfer coefficient
ha=284 W/m2K while the outer surface of Insulation is exposed to atmosphere air at
38°C with heat transfer coefficient of 17 W/m 2K Calculate heat loss to atmosphere for
3 m length of the tube and temperature drop across each layer. (16)

b) A pipe consists of 100 mm internal diameter and 8mm thickness carries steam at
170°C. The convective heat transfer coefficient on the inner surface of pipe is 75
W/m2C. The pipe is insulated by two layers of insulation. The first layer of
insulation is 46 mm in thickness having thermal conductivity of 0.14 W/m°C. The
second layer of insulation is also 46 mm in thickness having thermal conductivity of
0.46 W/m°C. Ambient air temperature = 33°C. The convective heat transfer
coefficient from the outer surface of pipe = 12 W/m 2C. Thermal conductivity
ofsteam pipe = 46 W/m°C. Calculate the heat loss per unit length of pipe and
determine the interface temperatures. (16)
