ME8693 Heat and mass transfer


Unit -4
1. Calculate the following for an industrial furnace in the form of a black body and emitting radiation at
2500C. (i) Wavelength at which the emission is maximum (ii)Maximum emissive power, (iii)Total
emissive power.
2. It is observed that the intensity of the radiation emitted by the sun is maximum at a wavelength of 0.5μ.
Assuming the sun to be a black body, estimate the surface temperature and emissive power.
3. The net radiation from the surface of two parallel plates maintained at temperatures, T1 and T2 is to be
reduced by 79 times. Calculate the number of screen to be placed between the two surface to achieve this
reduction in heat exchange, assuming the emissivity of the screens as 0.05 and that of the surfaces as 0.8.
4. A heating furnace of total surface area 30m2 and volume 10m3 is maintained at a temperature of 1000°C
over its entire volume. The total pressure of the combustion gases is 2 atm, the partial pressure of water
vapour is 0.1 atm and that of CO2 is 0.3 atm. Calculate the emissivity of the gaseous mixture.
5. (i) Calculate the shape factor F1-2 for the configuration shown in the figure.

and a plane surface
(ii) Derive the expression for mean emissivity in heat exchange between grey surface.
6. Two parallel plates 2m x 1m are spaced 1m apart. The plates are at a temperature of 727 C and 227C
and their emissivites are 0.3 and 0.5 respectively. The plates are located in a large room the walls of which
are at 27C. Determine the rate of heat loss from each plate and the heat gain by the walls.
7. Two large parallel plates with =0.5 each, are maintained at different temperature and are exchanging
heat only by radiation. Two equally large radiation shields with surface emissivity 0.05 are introduced in
parallel to the plates. Find the percentage reduction in net radiative heat transfer.
8. A thin aluminium sheet with an emissivity of 0.1 on both sides is placed between two very large parallel
plates that are maintained at uniform temperatures of T 1=800K and T2=500K and have emissivities of
ε1=0.2 and ε2=0.7 respectively. Determine the net rate of radiation heat transfer between the two plates
and compare the result to that without the shield.
9. The double walled spherical vessel used for storing liquid oxygen are covered with the layer of silver
having a emissivity of 0.03. the temperature of the outer surface of the inner wall is -153°C and the
temperature of the inner surface of the outer wall is 27°C. The sphere inner and outer diameters are 21
cm and 30 cm respectively with the space between them evacuated. Calculate the radiation heat transfer
through the walls into the vessel and the rate of evaporation of the liquid oxygen if its rate of evaporation
is 220kJ/kg.
10. The net radiation from the surface of two parallel plates maintained at temperatures, T1 and T2 is to be
reduced by 79 times. Calculate the number of screen to be placed between the two surface to achieve this
reduction in heat exchange, assuming the emissivity of the screens as 0.05 and that of the surfaces as 0.8.
11. A heating furnace of total surface area 30m2 and volume 10m3 is maintained at a temperature of 1000°C
over its entire volume. The total pressure of the combustion gases is 2 atm, the partial pressure of water
vapour is 0.1 atm and that of CO2 is 0.3 atm. Calculate the emissivity of the gaseous mixture.
