Question: Reconsider Prob. 162. Using EES (or other) software, plot the rate at which ice melts as a function of the container thickness in the range
Reconsider Prob. 1–62. Using EES (or other) software, plot the rate at which ice melts as a function of the container thickness in the range of 0.1 cm to 1.0 cm. Discuss the results.
Data from Problem 62
A hollow spherical iron container with outer diameter 20 cm and thickness 0.2 cm is filled with iced water at 0°C. If the outer surface temperature is 5°C, determine the approximate rate of heat loss from the sphere, in kW, and the rate at which ice melts in the container. The heat of fusion of water is 333.7 kJ/kg.
Bank Iced water 5C 0.2 cm
