Let's say an average cow emits 100kg of methane per annum.

If coal consists of 80% carbon and 20% moisture and ash, how much coal would I have to burn per annum to have the same global warming potential as one cow.

Assume that the carbon in the coal burns completely.

HEAT TRANSFER: HEAT EXCHANGER

Oil flows in a heat exchanger with a mass flow rate of 20 kg/s and is to be cooled from 175 to 65°C with water as a coolant flowing at a rate of 30 kg/s and an inlet temperature of 12°C. The overall heat transfer coefficient is U = 1250 W/m2⋅K.

a) Sketch the temperature profile and calculate the mean temperature for parallel flow, counter flow, and cross flow heat exchangers..

b) Determine the area required to sustain the heat transfer for each heat exchanger stated in (a) Comment on your answer.

c) If fouling with thickness of 2 mm happens on the tubes side, determine the new heat transfer coefficient and evaluate the effectiveness of a 45 m length counter flow heat exchanger before and after fouling. Specific heat capacity of oil and water is given as cp, oil = 2058 J/kg⋅K and cp, water = 4184 J/kg⋅K. Conductivity of fouling is taken as kf,I = 11 W/m⋅K.

A 12-cm tall, 6-cm outer diameter cylindrical ceramic mug filled with tea is boiling in a microwave oven. Assume latent heat of evaporation as 2260 kJ/kg. The convection heat transfer coefficient is h=20 W/(m 2 K) and the air in the microwave is at 20 °C. The mug’s wall thickness is 6 mm and the ceramic thermal conductivity is 30 W/(mK). Neglect heat transfer from the bottom of the mug and calculate the rate (in g/s) at which the tea is boiling if the microwave power absorbed by the tea is 50 W.

Steam at 400°F flows through a 2-in (ID) copper pipe having a thickness of 0.25 in. The outside surface of the pipe is insulated with 1-in-thick layer of fiberglass and 0.008-in-thick layer of aluminum. The outside surface of the insulation is exposed to air at 80°F. The convection coefficients for steam and air are 25 and 12 Btu/h-ft2 -°F, respectively. The thermal conductivity of fiberglass is 0.022 Btu/h-ft-°F. Conductivities of metals may be taken from Geankoplis. a. Calculate the rate of heat transfer for 30-ft length of the pipe in Btu/h. b. What are the interface and surface temperatures? c.
