Question: Consider a 40 W incandescent light bulb that could be approximated as a 2 in-diameter sphere. 1) Estimate the heat transfer (W) from the bulb

Consider a 40 W incandescent light bulb that could be approximated as a 2 in-diameter sphere. 1) Estimate the heat transfer (W) from the bulb at 127C to a: 40 Watt - Clear - Incandescent A15 Bulb, a) 27C airstream moving at 0.3 m/s-forced convection condition. A15 bulb: 15/8 = 1-7/8" diameter b) 27C quiescent (calm/stationary) air- natural convection condition. 2) What percentage of the power (40 W) is lost in each condition; by forced convection and natural convection. 3) Should both mechanisms of heat transfer be considered in this problem? Why
