Total Thermal Resistance of Spherical Wall with Convection on Both Side Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Total Thermal Resistance of Spherical Wall with Convection on Both Side?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

R tr = \frac{1}{4 \cdot π \cdot {r 1}^{2} \cdot h i} + \frac{r 2 - r 1}{4 \cdot π \cdot k \cdot r 1 \cdot r 2} + \frac{1}{4 \cdot π \cdot {r 2}^{2} \cdot h o}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

R tr = \frac{1}{4 \cdot π \cdot {5m}^{2} \cdot 0.001W/m²*K} + \frac{6m - 5m}{4 \cdot π \cdot 2W/(m*K) \cdot 5m \cdot 6m} + \frac{1}{4 \cdot π \cdot {6m}^{2} \cdot 0.0025W/m²*K}

Next Step Substitute values of Constants

∴

R tr = \frac{1}{4 \cdot 3.1416 \cdot {5m}^{2} \cdot 0.001W/m²*K} + \frac{6m - 5m}{4 \cdot 3.1416 \cdot 2W/(m*K) \cdot 5m \cdot 6m} + \frac{1}{4 \cdot 3.1416 \cdot {6m}^{2} \cdot 0.0025W/m²*K}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

R tr = \frac{1}{4 \cdot 3.1416 \cdot 5^{2} \cdot 0.001} + \frac{6 - 5}{4 \cdot 3.1416 \cdot 2 \cdot 5 \cdot 6} + \frac{1}{4 \cdot 3.1416 \cdot 6^{2} \cdot 0.0025}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

R tr = 3.95706902213782K/W

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

R tr = 3.9571K/W
