Long cylindrical AISI stainless steel rods (k = 7.74 Btu/h ⋅ ft


⋅ °F and α = 0.135 ft2/h) of 4-in. diameter are heat-treated by
drawing them at a velocity of 10 ft/min through a 30-ft-long
oven maintained at 1700°F. The heat transfer coefficient in
the oven is 20 Btu/h ⋅ ft2 ⋅ °F. If the rods enter the oven at
85°F, determine their centerline temperature when they
leave.

Chapter 4, Solution 40 Figure P4.40

Long cylindrical steel rods are heat-treated in an oven. Their centerline temperature when
they leave the oven is to be determined.
Assumptions 1 Heat conduction in the rods is one-dimensional since the rods are long
and they have thermal symmetry about the center line. 2 The thermal properties of the rod
are constant. 3 The heat transfer coefficient is constant and uniform over the entire
surface. 4 The Fourier number is τ > 0.2 so that the one-term approximate solutions (or
the transient temperature charts) are applicable (this assumption will be verified).
Properties The properties of AISI stainless steel rods are given to be k = 7.74 Btu/h.ft.°F,

White potatoes (k = 0.50 W/m ⋅ °C and α = 0.13 × 10-6 m2/s) that are initially at a
uniform temperature of 25°C and have an average diameter
of 6 cm are to be cooled by refrigerated air at 2°C flowing
at a velocity of 4 m/s. The average heat transfer coefficient
between the potatoes and the air is experimentally
determined to be 19 W/m2 ⋅ °C. Determine how long it will
take for the center temperature of the potatoes to drop to
6°C. Also, determine if any part of the potatoes will
experience chilling injury during this process.
Figure P4.54
Chapter 4, Solution 54

The center temperature of potatoes is to be lowered to 6°C during cooling. The cooling
time and if any part of the potatoes will suffer chilling injury during this cooling process
are to be determined.
Assumptions 1 The potatoes are spherical in shape with a radius of r0 = 3 cm. 2 Heat
conduction in the potato is one-dimensional in the radial direction because of the
symmetry about the midpoint. 3 The thermal properties of the potato are constant. 4 The
heat transfer coefficient is constant and uniform over the entire surface. 5 The Fourier
number is τ > 0.2 so that the one-term approximate solutions (or the transient temperature
charts) are applicable (this assumption will be verified).
Properties The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of potatoes are given to be
k = 0.50 W/m⋅°C and α = 0.13×10-6 m2/s.

which is above the temperature range of 3 to 4 °C for chilling injury for potatoes.

which gives Tsurface = T∞ + 0.6(To − T∞ ) = 2 + 0.6(6 − 2) = 4.4º C

Chapter 4, Problem 64.

The soil temperature in the upper layers of the earth varies with the variations in the
atmospheric conditions. Before a cold front moves in, the earth at a location is initially at
a uniform temperature of 10°C. Then the area is subjected to a temperature of 210°C and
high winds that resulted in a convection heat transfer coefficient of 40 W/m2 ⋅ °C on the
earth’s surface for a period of 10 h. Taking the properties of the soil at that location to be
k = 0.9 W/m ⋅ °C and α = 1.6 × 1025 m2/s, determine the soil temperature at distances 0,
10, 20, and 50 cm from the earth’s surface at the end of this 10-h period.

Chapter 4, Solution 64

An area is subjected to cold air for a 10-h period. The soil temperatures at distances 0, 10,
20, and 50 cm from the earth’s surface are to be determined.
Assumptions 1 The temperature in the soil is affected by the thermal conditions at one
surface only, and thus the soil can be considered to be a semi-infinite medium with a
specified surface temperature. 2 The thermal properties of the soil are constant.
Properties The thermal properties of the soil are given to be k = 0.9 W/m ⋅ °C and α =
1.6×10-5 m2/s.
Analysis The one-dimensional transient temperature distribution in the ground can be
determined from
T ( x , t ) − Ti ⎛ x ⎞ ⎛ hx h 2αt ⎞ ⎡ ⎛ ⎞⎤

⎝ ⎠
Then we conclude that the last term in the temperature distribution relation above must be
zero regardless of x despite the exponential term tending to infinity since (1)
erfc(ξ ) → 0 for ξ > 4 (see Table 4-3) and (2) the term has to remain less than 1 to have
physically meaningful solutions. That is,
⎛ hx h 2αt ⎞ ⎡ ⎛ x h αt ⎞⎟⎤ ⎛ hx ⎞⎡ ⎛ x ⎞⎤
exp⎜ + 2 ⎟ ⎢erfc⎜ + ⎥ = exp⎜ + 1138 ⎟ ⎢erfc⎜⎜ + 33.3 ⎟⎟⎥ ≅ 0
⎜ k ⎟ ⎜ ⎟
⎝ k ⎠ ⎢⎣ ⎝ 2 αt k ⎠⎥⎦ ⎝ k ⎠ ⎢⎣ ⎝ 2 αt ⎠⎥⎦
Therefore, the temperature distribution relation simplifies to

Chapter 4, Problem 108.

A hot dog can be considered to be a 12-cm-long cylinder whose diameter is 2 cm and


whose properties are r = 980 kg/m3, Cp = 3.9 kJ/kg ⋅ °C, k = 0.76 W/m ⋅ °C, and α = 2 ×
10-7 m2/s. A hot dog initially at 5°C is dropped into boiling -
water at 100°C. The heat transfer coefficient at the surface of
the hot dog is estimated to be 600 W/m2 ⋅ °C. If the hot dog is
considered cooked when its center temperature reaches 80°C,
determine how long it will take to cook it in the boiling
water.

Chapter 4, Solution 108

A hot dog is to be cooked by dropping it into boiling water. The time of cooking is to be
determined.
Assumptions 1 Heat conduction in the hot dog is two-dimensional, and thus the
temperature varies in both the axial x- and the radial r- directions. 2 The thermal
properties of the hot dog are constant. 4 The heat transfer coefficient is constant and
uniform over the entire surface. 5 The Fourier number is τ > 0.2 so that the one-term
approximate solutions (or the transient temperature charts) are applicable (this
assumption will be verified).
Properties The thermal properties of the hot dog are given to be k = 0.76 W/m.°C, ρ =
980 kg/m3, Cp = 3.9 kJ/kg.°C, and α = 2×10-7 m2/s.
Analysis This hot dog can physically be formed by the intersection of an infinite plane
wall of thickness 2L = 12 cm, and a long cylinder of radius ro = D/2 = 1 cm. The Biot
numbers and corresponding constants are first determined to be
hL (600 W/m 2 .°C)(0.06 m)
Bi = = ⎯→ λ1 = 1.5381 and A1 = 1.2726
= 47.37 ⎯
k (0.76 W/m.°C)

hro (600 W/m 2 .°C)(0.01 m)


Bi = = ⎯→ λ1 = 2.1251 and A1 = 1.5515
= 7.895 ⎯
k (0.76 W/m.°C)

Noting that τ = αt / L2 and assuming τ > 0.2 in all dimensions and thus the one-term
approximate solution for transient heat conduction is applicable, the product solution for
this problem can be written as Water

which gives
t = 244 s = 4.1 min
Therefore, it will take about 4.1 min for the hot dog to cook. Note that

τ cyl = = = 0.49 > 0.2

and thus the assumption τ > 0.2 for the applicability of the one-term approximate solution
is verified.
Note that the dimensionless time corresponding to the plane wall solution is
αt (2 × 10 −7 m 2 /s)(244 s)
τ wall = = = 0.0136 < 0.2
L2 (0.06 m) 2
and so the one-term solution for the plane wall is not valid. If we instead solve treating
the hot dog as a very long cylinder, we get:
(
θ (0, t ) cyl = A1 e − λ 1 τ

)
80 − 100 ⎧ ⎡ (2 × 10 − 7 )t ⎤ ⎫
= ⎨(1.5515) exp ⎢− (2.1251) 2 ⎥ ⎬ = 0.21
5 − 100 ⎩ ⎣ (0.01) 2 ⎦ ⎭
which gives
t = 221 s = 3.68 min

Discussion This problem could also be solved by treating the hot dog as an infinite
cylinder since heat transfer through the end surfaces will have little effect on the mid
section temperature because of the large distance.
