SECTION-B
2. What are three modes of heat transfer, explain with suitable examples.
3. A steel rod (k = 30 W/m ?C), 10 mm in diameter and 50 mm long with an insulated end is
to be used as a fin. It is exposed to surrounding with temperature of 65?C and heat
transfer coefficient 50 W/m
2
?C. The temperature at base is 98?C. Determine
a. fin efficiency
b. temperature at the end of fin.
4. What are different boundary conditions used for solution of heat transfer problems? Write
the expression for each of them.
5. A black body of 0.2 m
2
area has an effective temperature of 800?K. Calculate
a. The total rate of energy emission ( ?

)
b. The energy of normal radiation
c. The intensity of radiation along a direction 60? to the normal.
6. What are the common causes of fouling in heat exchangers? How does fouling affects
heat transfer and pressure drop.

SECTION-C
7. Derive an expression for logarithmic mean temperature difference (LMTD) in counter
flow heat exchanger.
8. A counter flow heat exchanger is used to heat water from 20?C to 80?C at a rate of
1.2 kg/s. The heating is obtained by using geothermal water available at 160?C at a mass
flow rate of 2 kg/s. The inner tube is thin walled, and has a diameter of 1.5 cm. If the
overall transfer coefficient is 640 W/m
2
K. Calculate the length of the heat exchanger
required to achieve the desired heating by using effectiveness - NTU method. Take
specific heat of geothermal water as 4.31 KJ/Kg K and that of ground water as
4.18 KJ/Kg K.
9. Explain the following :
a. What is the utility of the extended surfaces?
b. What is black body? Write the significant of defining the black body.
