A 2-mm-diameter electrical wire is insulated by a 2-mm-thick rubberized sheath (k = 0.13 W/m K), and the wire/sheath interface i
s characterized by a thermal contact resistance of R"t,c= 3x10-4 m2 K/W. The convection heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface of the sheath is 10 W/m2 K, and the temperature of the ambient air is 20o C. If the temperature of the insulation may not exceed 50o C, what is the maximum allowable electrical power that may be dissipated per unit length of the conductor? What is the critical radius of the insulation?
1 answer:
Answer:
maximum allowable electrical power=4.51W/m
critical radius of the insulation=13mm
Explanation:
Hello!
To solve this heat transfer problem we must initially draw the wire and interpret the whole problem (see attached image)
Subsequently, consider the heat transfer equation from the internal part of the tube to the external air, taking into account the resistance by convection, and conduction as shown in the attached image
to find the critical insulation radius we must divide the conductivity of the material by the external convective coefficient

Explanation:
We can define Heat loss as a measure of the total transfer of heat through the fabric of a building from inside to the outside, either from conduction, convection, radiation, or any combination of the these.
Please kindly check attachment for the solution of the heat loss as asked in the question.

Answer:
True
Explanation:
Shear force diagram is a diagram which is drawn by calculating the shear force either to the right of the section or to the left of the section .
shear force is also be define as the change of moment w.r.t to distance
V=
where V is shear force and M is bending moment.
from the equation we can clearly say that shear force diagram is slope of bending moment diagram.
