Quenching is a rapid cooling process by which many metallic alloys are hardened. Brass (a copper alloy: 70 Cu, 30 Zn) plates that are 4 mm thick are quenched in a water bath at a heat treating plant. If a brass plate is initially at 4500C determine the quench time needed for the plate to attain 900C. The water bath temperature is 800C and has an average convective heat transfer coefficient of 45 W/(m2 K), determine how long the plate has to remain in the oven.
3-78E Steam exiting the turbine of a steam power plant at 100°F is to be condensed in a large condenser by cooling water flowing through copper pipes (k = 223 Btu/h ft. °F) of inner diameter 0.4 in. and outer diameter 0.6 in. at an average temperature of 70°F. The heat of vaporization of water at 100°F is 1037 Btu/lbm. The heat transfer coefficients are 1500 Btu/h ft² °F on the steam side and 35 Btu/h ft² °F on the water side. Determine the length of the tube required to con- dense steam at a rate of 120 lbm/h. Answer: 1148 ft Steam, 100°F 120 lbm/h Liquid water FIGURE P3-78E Cooling water
A long copper cylinder 0.6 m in diameter and initially at a uniform temperature of 38oC is placed in a water bath at 93oC. Assuming that the heat transfer coefficient between the copper and the water is 1248 W/(m2 * K), calculate the time required to heat the center of the cylinder to 66oC. As a first approximation, neglect the temperature gradient within the cylinder; then repeat your calculation without this simplifying assumption and compare your results.
