b) What are Fourier and Biot numbers?
c) State the assumptions on which Fourier’s law is based.
d) What is log mean area as applied to hollow cylinder?
e) Describe efficiency and effectiveness of fin.
f) Why thermal conductivity of metals higher than that of fluids?
g) Define thermal conductance and thermal resistance.
h) State Lambert’s cosine law.
i) Differentiate between irradiation and radiosity.
j) What do you mean by participating media? Give examples.
Q2.
a) Explain the “Relaxation Method” in solving two dimensional heat conduction problems.
b) The inside dimensions of a furnace are 3 m x 2.5 m x 2 m. The walls are 0.2 m thick and have thermal conductivity of 1.3 w/m°C. If the temperatures at the inner and outer surfaces are 300°C and 100°C respectively, calculate the rate of heat loss.
