3.122 A rod of diameter D= 25 mm and thermal conductivity K=60 W/mK protrudes normally from a furnace
wall that is at Tw =200ºC and is covered by insulation of thickness Lins=200 mm. The rod is welded to the
furnace wall and is used as a hanger for supporting instrumentation cables. To avoid damaging the cables,
the temperature of the rod at its exposed surface, To, must be maintained below a specified operating limit
of Tmax =100ºC. The ambient air temperature is T= 25ºC, and the convection coefficient is h=15 W/m2*K.
(a) Derive an expression for the exposed surface temperatura To as a function of the prescribed thermal and
geometrical parameters. The rod has an exposed length Lo, and its tip is well insulated.

3.129 A long, circular aluminum rod is attached at one end to a heated wall and transfers heat by
convection to a cold fluid.
(a) If the diameter of the rod is tripled, by how much would the rate of heat removal change?
(b) If a copper rod of the same diameter is used in place of the aluminum, by how much would the rate of
heat removal change?

La tasa de calor removida incrementa 419.6% si el diámetro de la varilla de cobre es triplicada.

(b) La tasa de transferencia de calor es directamente proporcional al cuadrado de la conductividad térmica.
𝑞𝑓 = √𝑘

Se considera las propiedades de aluminio y cobre puros, así que la conductividad térmica de estos
elementos es:
𝑘𝐴𝑙 = 237 𝑊/𝑚𝐾
𝑘𝐶𝑢 = 401 𝑊/𝑚𝐾
El porcentaje de incremento en la tasa de calor es:

La tasa de calor removida se incrementa por 30%, cuando una varilla de cobre de mismo diámetro
es usada en lugar de la varilla de aluminio.

3.133 The extent to which the tip condition affects the termal performance of a fin depends on the fin geometry
and termal conductivity, as well as the convection coefficient. Consider an alloyed aluminum (k =180 W/mK)
rectangular fin whose base temperature is Tb =100ºC. The fin is exposed to a fluid of temperature T=25ºC,
and a uniform convection coefficient of h= 100W/m2 K may be assumed for the fin surface.
(a) For a fin of length L _ 10 mm, thickness t=1 mm, and width w >> t, determine the fin heat transfer rate per
unit width q’f , efficiency nf, effectiveness ef, thermal resistance per unit width R_t,f, and tip temperature T(L)
for Cases A and B of Table 3.4. Contrast your results with those based on an infinite fin approximation.

3.137 Circular copper rods of diameter D =1 mm and length L= 25 mm are used to enhance heat transfer
from a surface that is maintained at Ts,1 =100ºC. One end of the rod is attached to this surface (at x _ 0),
while the other end (x= 25 mm) is joined to a second
surface, which is maintained at Ts,2 =0º C. Air flowing between the surfaces (and over the rods) is also
at a temperature of T= 0ºC, and a convection coefficient of h =100 W/m2 K is maintained.
(a) What is the rate of heat transfer by convection from a single copper rod to the air?
(b) What is the total rate of heat transfer from a 1m x 1 m section of the surface at 100ºC, if a bundle of the
rods is installed on 4-mm centers?

E
3.142 Finned passages are frequently formed between parallel plates to enhance convection heat transfer
in compact heat exchanger cores. An important application is in electronic equipment cooling, where one or
more air-cooled stacks are placed between heat-dissipatingb electrical components. Consider a single
stack of rectangular fins of length L and thickness t, with convection conditions corresponding to h and Tinf.
(a) Obtain expressions for the fin heat transfer rates, qf,o and qf,L, in terms of the base temperatures, To and
TL.
(b) In a specific application, a stack that is 200 mm wide and 100 mm deep contains 50 fins, each of length
L= 12 mm. The entire stack is made from aluminum, which is everywhere 1.0 mm thick. If temperature
limitations associated with electrical components joined to opposite plates dictate máximum allowable plate
temperatures of To= 400 K and TL = 350 K, what are the corresponding máximum power dissipations if h=
150 W/m2 K and Tinf=300 K?
3.146 As more and more components are placed on a single integrated circuit (chip), the amount of heat
that is dissipated continues to increase. However, this increase is limited by the maximum allowable chip
operating temperature, which is approximately
75º C. To maximize heat dissipation, it is proposed that a 4z 4 array of copper pin fins be metallurgically
joined to the outer surface of a square chip that is 12.7 mm on a side. (a) Sketch the equivalent thermal
circuit for the pin–chip–board assembly, assuming one dimensional, steady-state conditions and negligible
contact resistance between the pins and the chip. In variable form, label appropriate resistances,
temperatures, and heat rates.
(b) For the conditions prescribed in Problem 3.27, what is the maximum rate at which heat can be
dissipated in the chip when the pins are in place?
That is, what is the value of qc for Tc =75ºC? The pin diameter and length are Dp =1.5 mm and Lp= 15
mm.
3.147 A homeowner’s wood stove is equipped with a top burner for cooking. The D=200-mm-diameter
burner is fabricated of cast iron (k = 65 W/m K). The bottom (combustion) side of the burner has 8 straight
fins of uniform cross section, arranged as shown in the sketch. A very thin ceramic coating (e=0.95) is
applied to all surfaces of the burner. The top of the burner is exposed to room conditions (Tsur,t = T_,t =
20ºC, ht = 40 W/m2 K), while the bottom of the burner is exposed to combustión conditions
(Tsur,b=T_.b=450ºC, hb=50 W/m2 K). Compare the top surface temperature of the finned burner to that
which would exist for a burner without fins. Hint: Use the same expression for radiation heat transfer to the
bottom of the finned burner as for the burner with no fins.
3.154 An air heater consists of a steel tube (k=20 W/m K), with inner and outer radii of r1 =13 mm and r2
=16mm, respectively, and eight integrally machined longitudinal fins, each of thickness t=3 mm. The fins
extend to a concentric tube, which is of radius r3 =40 mm and insulated on its outer surface. Water at a
temperature T_,i = 90ºC flows through the inner tube, while air at T_,o =25ºC flows through the annular
region formed by the larger concentric tube.
