Four power transistors, each dissipating 12 W, are mounted on a thin vertical aluminum plate 22 cm 3 22 cm in size. The heat gen

erated by the transistors is to be dissipated by both surfaces of the plate to the surrounding air at 25°C, which is blown over the plate by a fan. The entire plate can be assumed to be nearly isothermal, and the exposed surface area of the transistor can be taken to be equal to its base area. If the average convection heat transfer coefficient is 25 W/m2·K, determine the temperature of the aluminum plate. Disregard any radiation effects.

Answer:

The temperature of the Aluminium plate 44.84⁰C

Explanation:

Number of transistors = 4

Since the heat dissipated by each transistor is 12W

Total heat dissipated, Q = 4 * 12 = 48 W

Q = 48 W

Cross sectional Area of the Aluminium plate, A = 2(l * b)

l = Length of the aluminium plate = 22 cm = 0.22 m

b = width of the aluminium plate = 22 cm = 0.22 m

A =2( 0.22 * 0.22 )

A = 0.0968 m²

From the heat balance equation, Q = hAΔT

h = 25 W/m²·K

A = 0.0968 m²

ΔT = T - T(air)

T(air) = 25°C

ΔT = T - 25°C

Q = 25 * 0.0968 * (  T - 25)

Q = 2.42 (T - 25)

Substitute Q = 48 into the equation above

48 =  2.42 (T - 25)

T - 25 = 19.84

T = 25 + 19.84

T = 44.84 ⁰C

If you are going 60 mph what is your speed in m per second
LenKa [72]

Answer:

1/60 mps

Explanation:

We would first have to divide 60 by 60 because there is 60mins per hour to get 1mpm. After that we would have to divide 1 by 60 because there are 60 secs in a min. So our final answer after doing 1/60 would be a fraction.
