Assignment No.3- Heat Transfer. See attached illustrations and other material.
1.) A freezer has walls and ceiling made of:
1.7 mm thick stainless steel (k=14.2WmK)
10 cm thick foam insulation (K=0.034WmC)
UNKNOWN thickness of recycled cellulose ((:k=0.043WmC}
1.27 cm thick wood siding (k=0.43WmK).
The ambient air inside the freezer is maintained at -40C and the ambient air outside the freezer is at +32C.
The heat transfer coefficient of the on the exposed stainless steel ("Side A") side is 2.0Wm2K. The heat transfer coefficient of the exposed wood side ("Side B'') is 5.0Wm2C.
What is the thickness of the recycled cellulose layer, if the surface temperature on the "warm" ("Side B") side is +29C?
