    This document provides an introduction and methodology for analyzing heat transfer problems. It begins by outlining the key components of heat transfer analysis: stating what is known and what needs to be found, drawing a schematic, listing assumptions, compiling properties, performing the analysis, and commenting on results. It then provides 4 examples of applying this methodology to problems involving conduction across a wall, convection from a transistor, surface-to-surface heat exchange, and an energy balance within a closed system. Finally, it presents an exercise involving calculating heat transfer rates between parallel plates under different insulating conditions.

    Chapter One – Introduction to Heat Transfer

    Examples and Exercises


    Analysis of Heat Transfer - Methodology
    Known:
     After carefully reading the problem, state briefly and concisely what is known about the problem.
    Do not repeat the problem statement.
    Find:
     State briefly and concisely what must be found.
    Schematic:
     Draw a schematic of the physical system. If application of the conservation laws is anticipated,
    represent the required control volumes or surfaces by dashed lines on the schematic. Identify
    relevant heat transfer processes by appropriately labeled arrows on the schematic.
    Assumptions:
     List all pertinent simplifying assumptions.
    Properties:
     Compile property values needed for subsequent calculations and identify the source from which
    they are obtained.
    Analysis:
     Begin your analysis by applying appropriate conservation laws, and introduce rate equations as
    needed. Develop the analysis as completely as possible before substituting numerical values.
    Perform the calculations needed to obtain the desired results.
    Comments:
     Discuss your results. Such a discussion may include a summary of key conclusions, a critique of the
    original assumptions, and an inference of Analysis of Heat Transfer Problems: Methodology trends
    obtained by performing additional what-if and parameter sensitivity calculations.
    Example 1: Conduction across a Plane Wall

    1) The wall of a house, 7m wide and 6m high is made from 0.3m


    thick brick K = 0.6W/mK. The surface temperature on the inside of
    the wall is 160C and that on the outside is 60C. Find the heat flux
    through the wall and the total heat loss through it.
    Example 2: Convection Heat Dissipation from Transistor
    2) The case of a power transistor, which is of length L = 10 mm and
    diameter D = 12 mm, is cooled by an air stream of temperature T =
    250C.

     Under conditions for which the air maintains an average convection


    coefficient of h = 100 W/m2 K on the surface of the case, what is the
    maximum allowable power dissipation if the surface temperature is
    not to exceed 850C?
    Example 3: Surface to Surface Heat Exchange
    3) An un-insulated steam pipe passes through a room in which the air
    and walls are at 25°C. The outside diameter of the pipe is 70 mm,
    and its surface temperature and emissivity are 200°C and 0.8,
    respectively. If the coefficient associated with free convection heat
    transfer from the surface to the air is 15 W/m2 K, what is the rate of
    heat loss from the surface per unit length of pipe? (Assume gray
    sruface, ε = α )
    Example 4: Closed System Energy Balance
    4) A long conducting rod of diameter D and electrical resistance per
    unit length Re’ is initially in thermal equilibrium with the ambient air
    and its surroundings. This equilibrium is disturbed when an
    electrical current I is passed through the rod.
    Develop an equation that could be used to compute the variation of the
    rod temperature with time during the passage of the current.
    Exercise
    1) Consider steady heat transfer between two large parallel plates at
    constant temperatures of T1 = 300 K and T2 = 200 K that are L = 1 cm
    apart, as shown in Fig. below. Assuming the surfaces to be black
    (emissivity = 1), determine the rate of heat transfer between the plates
    per unit surface area assuming the gap between the plates is:
    (a) filled with atmospheric air,
    (a) evacuated,
    (b) filled with urethane insulation, and
    (c) filled with superinsulation that
    has an apparent thermal conductivity
    of 0.00002 W/m · °C.
