An overhead 25m long, uninsulated industrial steam pipe of 100mm diameter is routed through a building whose walls and air are a

t 25 *C. Pressurized steam maintains a pipe surface temperature of 150 *C, and the coefficient associated with natural convection is h = 10 W/m^2 * K. The surface emissivity is E = 0.81. What is the rate of heat loss from the steam line?
2. If the steam is gernerated in a gas-fired boiler operating at efficenty of 0.9, and natural gas is priced at C=0.02 per MJ, what is the annual cost of heat loss from line?

Answer:

a) he rate of heat loss from the steam line is 18.413588 kW

b) the annual cost of heat loss from line is $12904.25

Explanation:

a)

first we find the area

A = πdL

d is the diameter (0.1m) and L is the length (25m)

so

A = π ×  0.1 × 25

A = 7.85 m²

Now rate of heat loss through convection

qconv = hA(Ts -Ta)

h is the convective heat transfer coefficient (10 W/m²K), Ts is surface temperature (150°), Ta is temperature of air (25°)

so we substitute

qconv = 10 W/m²K × 7.85 m² × ( 150° - 25°)

qconv = 9817.477 J/s

Now heat lost through radiation

qrad = ∈Aα ( Ts⁴ - Ta⁴)

∈ is the emissivity (0.8), α is the boltzmann constant ( 5.67×10⁻⁸m⁻²K⁻⁴ ),

first we shall covert our temperatures from Celsius to kelvin scale

Ts is surface temperature (150 + 273K ), Ta is temperature of air (25 + 273K)

so we substitute

qrad = 0.8 × 7.854 × 5.67×10⁻⁸ × ( (423)⁴ - (298)⁴ )

qrad = 3.5625×10⁻⁷ × 2.413×10¹⁰

qrad = 8596.112 J/s

Now to get the total rate of heat loss through convection and radiation, we say

q = qconv + qrad

q = 9817.477 + 8596.112

q = 18413.588 J/s ≈ 18.413588 kW

Therefore the rate of heat loss from the steam line is 18.413588 kW

b)

annual cost of heat lost rate

A = C × q/n × ( 3600 × 24 × 365 )

C is the cost of heat per MJ( $0.02/10⁶) n is broiler efficiency ( 0.9)

so we substitute

A = 0.02/10⁶  × 18413.588/0.9 × ( 3600 × 24 × 365 )

A = $12904.25

Therefore the annual cost of heat loss from line is $12904.25

A steel bar 110 mm long and having a square cross section 22 mm on an edge is pulled in tension with a load of 89,000 N, and exp
iragen [17]

Answer:

Elastic modulus of steel  = 202.27 GPa

Explanation:

given data

long = 110 mm = 0.11 m

cross section 22 mm  = 0.022 m

load = 89,000 N

elongation = 0.10 mm = 1 × 10^{-4} m

solution

we know that Elastic modulus is express as

Elastic modulus = \frac{stress}{strain}    ................1

here stress is

Stress = \frac{Force}{area}       .................2

Area = (0.022)²

and  

Strain = \frac{extension}{length}       .............3

so here put value in equation 1 we get

Elastic modulus = \frac{89,000\times 0.11}{0.022^2 \times 1 \times 10^{-4} }  

Elastic modulus of steel = 202.27 × 10^9 Pa

Elastic modulus of steel  = 202.27 GPa
