(b) A hydrogen gas cylinder is situated in the cylinder cage. The cylinder wall is constructed from 15.5 mm carbon fiber (kCF = 0.75 W mK-¹). The outside of the cylinder is lagged with an inner 10 mm layer of ceramic insulation (kc 0.08 W mK-¹) and an outer 80 mm layer of fiberglass insulation (kp = 0.15 W mK-¹). The temperature on the hydrogen gas is 150 °C and the temperature of the cylinder cage is 45 °C. Given that the walls of the cylinder can be assumed to be flat and neglecting the contribution of radiation, calculate: (i) the heat flux per square meter of the gas cylinder wall (ii) the temperature at the interface between the fibreglass and the ceramic insulation.

The inner diameter of a pipe made of %1 C steel used in the drying machine of a textile factory is D1 = 160 mm and the thread diameter is D₂= 170 mm. The pipe is insulated with 25 mm thick glass wool. The heat transfer coefficient between the air and the pipe surface at 90 °C temperature inside the pipe is 80 W/m²K. The temperature of the ambient air outside the insulation is 20 °C and the air comes perpendicular to the cat wool surface at a speed of 10 m/s. Find the total heat transfer coefficient according to the inside diameter of the pipe. Calculate the heat transfer per unit length of pipe per unit time ?
The change in elasticity of the steak on cooking is due partly to the loss of water volume (so that existing bonds get closer together) and partly to the creation of new bonds. Assume all of the difference in raw vs. cooked steak thickness is due to water loss that makes it thinner (25 mm thick in the uncooked steak, versus 15 mm thick in the cooked steak), and that the other dimensions of the steak (length and width) have not changed. By what percentage has the steak's volume decreased from the original value? (Give your answer as a number between 0 and 100, without the percentage sign.) If you compare the distances between the bonds in the raw and cooked steaks, what would you expect to observe? a) The distance between bonds would be greater in the raw steak. b) The distance between bonds would be greater in the cooked steak. c) The distance between bonds would be the same in both steaks.
