7.21 The Weather Channel reports that it is a hot, muggy day with an air temperature of 90°F, a 10 mph breeze out of the southwest, and bright sunshine with a solar insolation of 400 W/m2. Consider the wall of a metal building over which the prevailing wind blows. The length of the wall in the wind direction is 10 m, and the emissivity is 0.93. Assume that all the solar irradiation is absorbed, that the surroundings are at Tsur = 85°F, and that flow is fully turbulent over the wall. Estimate the average wall temperature.

The average weather conditions are net radiation = 40 W/m2; air temperature = 28 .5° C; relative humidity = 55 percent; and wind speed = 2.7 m/s at a height of 2 m. Calculate the open water evaporation rate in millimeters per day using the energy method, the aerodynamic method, the combination method, and the Priestley-Taylor method. Assume standard atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa and Z0 is 0.03 cm.

How hot is the air in the top (crown) of a hot air balloon? Information from Ballooning: The Complete Guide to Riding the Winds, by Wirth and Young (Random House), claims that the air in the crown should be an average of 100°C for a balloon to be in a state of equilibrium. However, the temperature does not need to be exactly 100°C. What is a reasonable and safe range of temperatures? This range may vary with the size and...
