Instantaneous heat transfer rate Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Instantaneous heat transfer rate?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

Q rate = h \cdot A \cdot (T o - t f) \cdot (\exp (- \frac{h \cdot A \cdot t}{ρ \cdot V T \cdot C o}))

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

Q rate = 0.04W/m²*K \cdot 18m² \cdot (20K - 10K) \cdot (\exp (- \frac{0.04W/m²*K \cdot 18m² \cdot 12s}{5.51kg/m³ \cdot 63m³ \cdot 4J/(kg*K)}))

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

Q rate = 0.04 \cdot 18 \cdot (20 - 10) \cdot (\exp (- \frac{0.04 \cdot 18 \cdot 12}{5.51 \cdot 63 \cdot 4}))

Next Step Evaluate

∴

Q rate = 7.15533744011914W

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

Q rate = 7.1553W
