1. In a copper plate with 3 cm thick, one face is maintained at 400°C, and the other face is
maintained at 100°C. How much heat is transferred through the plate?
(Ans : 3.7 MW/m2)
2. Air at 20°C blows over a hot plate 50 by 75 cm maintained at 250°C. The convection heat-
transfer coefficient is 25 W/m2C. Calculate the heat transfer.
(Ans : 2.156 kW)
3. An uninsulated 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. How much surface emissive power? If the coefficient
associated with free convection heat transfer from the surface to the air is 15 W/m2K, what
is the rate of heat loss from the surface per unit length of pipe?
(Ans: Surface emissive power, E=2270 W/m2, Irradiation, G=447 W/m2, Rate of heat loss,
q’=998W/m)

4. Two infinite black plates at 800°C and 300°C exchange heat by radiation. Calculate the
heat transfer per unit area.
(Ans: 69.03 kW/m2)
5. The inner and outer surface temperatures of a glass window 5 mm thick are 15°Cand 5°C.
What is the heat loss through a 1 m X 3 m window? The thermal conductivity of glass is
1.4 W/m K.
(Ans: 8.4 kW)
