- An electrical transmission line of 1.2-cm diameter carries a current of 200 amps and has a resistance of 310-4 ohm per meter of length. If the air around this line is at v, determine the surface temperature on a windy day, assuming a wind blows across the line at 33 km/h.arrow_forwardA food product with 80% moisture content in a 5 cm diameter can wants to be frozen. The density of the product is 1000 kg / m cubic, the thermal conductivity is 1.0 W / (m K), and the initial freezing temperature is -1.75 ° C. After 10 hours in -25 ° C freezing medium, the product temperature becomes -10 ° C. Estimate the convection heat transfer coefficient of the freezing medium. Assume the can as an infinite cylinderarrow_forwardA food product wants to be produced in a small round shape (pellet) by freezing it in a water blast freezer freezer. Air freezer operates at -30 ° C. The initial product temperature is 25 ° C. The pellet has a diameter of 1.2 cm, and a density of 980 kg / m³. The initial freezing temperature is -2.5 ° C. The latent heat of freezing of the product is 280 kJ / kg. The thermal conductivity of the frozen product is 1.9 W / (m ° C). The convective heat transfer coefficient is 40 W / (m² K). Calculate the freeze time. t f = Answer hour.arrow_forward
