Air at 25°C is flowing over 400°C hot iron ball with a velocity of 10 m/s. The diameter of the iron ball is 10 cm diameter and (p =7874 kg/m3 and cP = 450 J/kg.K). After a while the surface temperature of the ball drops to 300°C.

  1. Determine the average rate of heat transfer from the ball.
  2. How long will it take to drop from 400°C to 300°C.
  3. Calculate the drag force. (The surface of the ball is smooth.)

A large sheet of material 40 mm thick contains dissolved hydrogen (H2) having a uniform concentration of 3 kmol/m3. The sheet is exposed to a fluid stream that causes the concentration of the dissolved hydrogen to be suddenly reduced to zero at both surfaces. This surface condition is maintained constant thereafter. If the mass diffusivity of hydrogen is 9 × 10-7 m2/s, how much time is required to bring the density of dissolved hydrogen to a value of 1.2 kg/m3 at the center of the sheet?
