A white van is parked in the sun. The direct irradiance (Gdir) from the sun is 1065 W/m² with an incidence angle of 20^o from perpendicular to the roof of the van (area 3 m x 1.8 m). The roof has an absorptivity of 0.9 to solar radiation and emissivity of 0.2 to the surroundings (which have an effective temperature of 25^oC). A gentle breeze of 25^oC air blows over the van, with a speed of 6 m/s along the length of the van roof (3 m).

Assuming the bottom side of the roof is well insulated, calculate:

a) The convective heat transfer coefficient for the top surface of the roof of the van, assuming it is an isothermal flat plate and using the properties of air at 25^oC.

b) The irradiance and the total radiative energy absorbed by the roof (assume Kirchoff's law applies for diffuse radiative transfer between the surroundings and the roof of the van).

c) The temperature of the roof of the van and its radiosity.

d) A supplier offers to apply a reflective coating that reduces the absorptivity at solar wavelengths to 0.7 but reduces the emissivity at ambient conditions to 0.05. Would you recommend this as a solution to reduce heat transfer to the van? Why or why not?

It is noteworthy that during a holiday trip, the water is discharged from a high tank with a 30 cm diameter plastic pipe into a stream in the valley, and the idea of generating power from this water comes to your mind. The bird flight from the reservoir stream is 100 m and the height difference between the free water surface and the stream in the tank is 75 m.
(a) Show the relationship between the water flow in the pipe and the power to be obtained for the power plant to be installed to obtain power from this source by drawing the flow-power graph.
(b) Calculate the required water flow to obtain the highest power.

While cores increase the cost of castings, they also provide a number of distinct advantages. The most significant is the ability to produce complex internal passages. They can also enable the production of difficult external features, such as undercuts, or allow the production of zero draft walls. Cores can reduce or eliminate additional machining, reduce the weight of a casting, and reduce or eliminate the need for multi-piece assembly. Answer the following questions about cores.

1. The cores themselves must be produced, and generally have to be removed from core boxes or molds. What geometric limitations might this impose? How might these limitations be overcome?

2. Cores must be positioned and supported within a mold. Discuss some of the limitations associated with core positioning and orientation. Consider the weight of a core, prevention of core fracture, minimization of core deflection, and possible buoyancy.

3. Because cores are internal to the casting, adequate venting is necessary to eliminate or minimize porosity problems. Discuss possible features to aid in venting.

4. How might core behavior vary with different materials being cast—steel versus aluminum, for example?

5. Discuss several of the reasons cores may be made from a different material than the molding material used in the primary mold.

6. Core removal is another design concern. Discuss how several different core making processes might perform in the area of removal. What are some ways to assist or facilitate core removal?

Drag measurements were taken for a 5 cm diameter sphere in water at 20 °C to predict the drag force of a 1 m diameter balloon rising in air with standard temperature and pressure. Given kinematic viscosity of water (v) = 1.0 X 10^-6 m²/s and kinematic viscosity of air (v) = 1.46 X 10^-5 m²/s.

At a point exactly 5.00 m downstream, the mean temperature is 30.0° C. It is known that the wall temperature of the duct was held at a constant temperature between these two points. Find this wall temperature.
