Afreezer compartment consists of a cubical cavity that is 2 m on a side. assume the bottom to be perfectly ulated (no heat flow). what is the minimum thickness of styrofoam insulation (k = 0.030 w/m/k) that must be applied to the top and side walls to ensure a heat load of less than 500 w, when the inner and outer surfaces are at -10 and 35c? (so the walls are made of styrofoam only)

A3-mm-thick panel of aluminum alloy (k 177 w/m-k, c 875 j/kg-k and ? = 2770 kg/m) is finished on both sides with an epoxy coating that must be cured at or above t,-150°c for at least 5 min. the production line for the curing operation involves two steps: (1) heating in a large oven with air at ts,0-175°c and a convection coefficient of h, 40 w/m2. k, and (2) cooling in a large chamber with air at 25°c and a con- vection coefficient of he 10 w/m2.k. the heating portion of the process is conducted over a time interval te which exceeds the ime required to reach 150°c by 5 min (h = r + 300 s). the coating has an emissivity of ? = 0.8, and the temperatures of the oven and chamber walls are 175 and 25°c, respectively. if the panel is placed in the oven at an initial temperature of 25°c and removed from the chamber at a safe-to-touch tempera ture of 37°c, what is the total elapsed time for the two-step curing operation?

Atank with constant volume contains 2.27 kg of a mixture of water phases (liquid-vapor). in the initial state the temperature and the quality are 127 °c and 0.6, respectively. the mixture is heated until the temperature of 160 oc is reached. illustrate the process in a t-v diagram. then, determine (1) the mass of the vapor in kg at the initial state, (2) the final pressure in kpa.

Aheavily insulated piston-cylinder device contains 0.02 m3 of steam at 300 kpa and 200 °c. 1.2 mpa. d this process. team is now compressed in a reversible manner to a pressure of etermine the entropy change and the work done on the steam during this process
