Answer:

0.46 J/g^{\circ}C

Explanation:

The heat absorbed by the piece of iron is given by:

Q=m C_s \Delta T

where here we have

Q = 1086.75 J is the heat absorbed

m = 15.75 g is the mass of the piece of iron

Cs is the iron's specific heat

\Delta T=175^{\circ}C-25^{\circ} C=150^{\circ}C is the change in temperature of the piece of iron

If we re-arrange the formula and we solve for Cs, we find the iron's specific heat capacity:

C_s=\frac{Q}{m \Delta T}=\frac{1086.75 J}{(15.75 g)(150^{\circ}C)}=0.46 J/gC

A pin fin of uniform, cross-sectional area is fabricated of an aluminum alloy (k = 160 W/m-K). The fin diameter is D = 4 mm, and
frozen [14]

Answer:

Given that

D= 4 mm

K = 160 W/m-K

h=h = 220 W/m²-K

ηf = 0.65

We know that

m=\sqrt{\dfrac{hP}{KA}}

For circular fin

m=\sqrt{\dfrac{4h}{KD}}

m=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\times 220}{160\times 0.004}}

m = 37.08

\eta_f=\dfrac{tanhmL}{mL}

0.65=\dfrac{tanh37.08L}{37.08L}

By solving above equation we get

L= 36.18 mm

The effectiveness for circular fin given as

\varepsilon =\dfrac{2\ tanhmL}{\sqrt{\dfrac{hD}{K}}}

\varepsilon =\dfrac{2\ tanh(37.08\times 0.03618)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{220\times 0.004}{160}}}

ε = 23.52
