2.11 Consider a 400 mm × 400 mm window in an aircraft. For a temperature difference of 90°C from the inner to the outer surface

of the window, calculate the heat loss rate through L = 12-mm-thick polycarbonate, soda lime glass, and aerogel windows, respectively. The thermal conductivities of the aerogel and polycarbonate are kag = 0.014 W/m-K and kpc = 0.21 W/m-K, respectively. Evaluate the thermal conductivity of the soda lime glass at 300 K. If the aircraft has 130 windows and the cost to heat the cabin air is $1/kWh, compare the costs associated with the heat loss through the windows for an 8-hour intercontinental flight\

Answer:

The heat loss rate through one of the windows made of polycarbonate is 252W. If the window is made of aerogel, the heat loss rate is 16.8W. If the window is made of soda-lime glass, the heat loss rate is 1190.4W.

The cost associated with the heat loss through the windows for an 8-hour flight is:

For aerogel windows: $17.472 (most efficient)

For polycarbonate windows: $262.08

For soda-lime glass windows: $1,238.016 (least efficient)

Explanation:

To calculate the heat loss rate through the window, we can use a model of heat transmission by conduction throw flat wall. Using unidimensional Fourier law:

\frac{dQ}{dt}=\dot Q =-kS\nabla \vec{T}

In this case:

\dot Q =k\frac{S}{L} \Delta T

If we replace the data provided by the problem we get the heat loss rate through one of the windows of each material (we only have to change the thermal conductivities).

To obtain the thermal conductivity of the soda-lime glass we use the graphic attached to this answer (In this case for soda-lime glass k₃₀₀=0.992w/m·K).

To calculate the cost associated with the heat loss through the windows for an 8-hour flight we use this formula (using the heat loss rate calculated in each case):

Cost=C_{hc}\cdot \dot Q \cdot t \cdot n=1\frac{\$}{Kwh} \cdot \dot Q \cdot 8h \cdot 130

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

a) T_2=569.35 K

b)Work done per kg of air=196.84 KJ/Kg

Explanation:

Given: \gamma =1.4 for air.

P_1=90 KPa ,T_=22^\circ C,P_2=900 KPa

We know that  

\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}=\left (\frac{P_2}{P_1}\right )^{\dfrac{{\gamma-1}}{\gamma}}

So  \dfrac{T_2}{295}=\left (\frac{900}{90}\right )^{\dfrac{{1.4-1}}{1.4}}

T_2=569.35 K

(a) T_2=569.35 K

(b)Work for adiabatic process

  W=\frac{P_1V_1-P_2V_2}{\gamma -1}

We know that PV=mRT for ideal gas.

 W=mR\frac{T_1-T_2}{\gamma -1}

Now by putting values

work per kg of air=0.287\times \frac{295-569.35}{1.4 -1}

Work w=-196.84 KJ/Kg    (Negative sign indicate work given to input.)

So work done per kg of air=196.84 KJ/Kg
