Question:
A thin-walled spherical tank in buried in the ground at a depth of 3 m. The tank has a diameter of 1.5 m, and it contains chemicals undergoing exothermic reaction that provides a uniform heat flux of 1 kW/m2 to the tank’s inner surface. From soil analysis, the ground has a thermal conductivity of 1.3 W/m ∙ K and a temperature of 10°C. Determine the surface temperature of the tank. Discuss the effect of the ground depth on the surface temperature of the tank.
