Question

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 is characterized by a thermal contact resistance of Rtc = 3E-4m².K/W. The convection heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface of the sheath is 10 W/m²K, and the temperature of the ambient air is 20°C.

If the temperature of the insulation may not exceed 50°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?

Answer:

a. 4.52W/m

b. 13mm

Explanation:

Given

Diameter of electrical wire = 2mm

Wire Thickness = 2-mm

Thermal Conductivity of Rubberized sheath (k = 0.13 W/m.K)

Thermal contact resistance = 3E-4m².K/W

Convection heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface of the sheath = 10 W/m²K,

Temperature of the ambient air = 20°C.

Maximum Allowable Sheet Temperature = 50°C.

From the thermal circuit (See attachment), we my write

E'q = q' = (Tin,i - T∞)/(R'cond + R'conv)

= (Tin,i - T∞)/(Ln (r in,o / r in,i)/2πk + (1/(2πr in,o h)))

Where r in,i = D/2

= 2mm/2

= 1 mm

= 0.001m

r in,o = r in,i + t = 0.003m

T in, i = Tmax = 50°C

Hence

q' = (50 - 20)/[(Ln (0.003/0.001)/(2π * 0.13) + 1/(2π * 0.003 * 10)]

= 30/[(Ln3/0.26π) + 1/0.06π)]

= 30/[(1.34) + 5.30)]

= 30/6.64

= 4.52W/m

The critical radius is unaffected by the constant resistance.

Hence

Critical Radius = k/h

= 0.13/10

= 0.013m

= 13mm

A lot of manufacturer often uses 5G machines. How these capabilities could help improve safety of the operators is that it does includes an emergency switch for the operator so that one can manually shut off when needed.

<h3>Edge computing with 5G</h3>

  • The edge computing along with 5G network and IoT devices can help put together  different safety features and limitations and on can use them to known the unsafe action and also data can be communicated.

Edge computing when use with 5G produces good opportunities in all industry. It is known to help bring computation and data storage close to where data is been produced and it enable good data control, reduced costs, etc.
