Two bodies one hot and the other cold are kept in vacuum. What will happen to the temperature of the hot body after sometime?
In a parallel flow heat exchanger, if the outlet temperature of hot and cold fluids are the same, then the log mean temperature difference (LMTD) is
In case of parallel flow heat exchanger, the lowest temperature theoretically attainable by the hot fluid is __________ the outlet temperature of the cold fluid.
A metal ball of radius 0.1 m at a uniform temperature of 90°C is left in air at 30°C. The density and the specific heat of the metal are 3000 kg/m3 and 0.4 kJ/kg.K respectively. The heat transfer co-efficient is 50 W/m2.K Neglecting the temperature gradients inside the ball, the time taken (in hours) for the ball to cool to 60°C is
Hot water (0.01 m3 /min) enters the tube side of a counter current shell and tube heat exchanger at 80°C and leaves at 50°C. Cold oil (0.05 m3 /min) of density 800 kg/m3 and specific heat of 2 kJ/kg.K enters at 20°C. The log mean temperature difference in °C is approximately
A liquid to liquid counterflow heat exchanger is used to heat cold fluid from 50?C to 150?C. Assuming that the hot fluid enters at 250?C and leaves at 200?C, the log mean temperature difference for the heat exchanger will be closer to
For a counter current heat exchanger with Ti h = 80°C, T°c = 60°C, T°h = 50°C and Ti c = 30°C, and the temperature difference between the two streams being the same everywhere along Z, the direction of flow of hot fluid. The temperature profile should satisfy
When heat is transferred form hot body to cold body, in a straight line, without affecting the intervening medium, it is referred as heat transfer by
