Example: Convection? Radiation? Or Both?PowerPoint PresentationSlide 3Slide 4Slide 5Slide 6Slide 7Slide 8Example: Convection? Radiation? Or Both?Heat transfer takes place between objects with different temperatures and all three modes of heat transfer exist simultaneously. However, there are many situations when one mode dominates over the others. Question: how do we know which modes to neglect in order to simplify the calculation? The following is an example to provide a general guideline to determine the relative importance between convection and radiation. Neglecting the less important usually leads to a simpler solution without significant error.Example: An electronic chip can dissipation between 0.1 W to 200 W of power depending on its operating configuration. Determine the operating temperature of the chip under three different power settings: (a) 0.1 W, (b) 200 W, (c) 5 W. Assume the convection heat transfer coefficient (h) over the chip is 10 W/(m K), the ambient temperature surrounding the chip is 27°C, the surface emissivity () of the chip is 0.3 and the chip has a surface area of 0.0004 m2.convectionradiationQuestion: what happens to conduction?high. is re temperatu the whenradiationneglect However,low. is re temperatu the whenconvectionneglect :2 thumbof Rule tell?one canhow :Question less. thescontribute that one eneglect th :1 thumbof Ruleone? which:Question .expression hesimplify t tomodes theof oneneglect can weMaybe.calculator leprogrammaba hout easily wit solved benot can that equationorder fourth A)300)(108.6()300(004.0)300)(0004.0)(1067.5)(3.0()300)(0004.0)(10()()(441244844SSSSsurrSSradiationconvTTqTTqTTATThAqqqconvectionconvectionradiationQuestion: what do you mean by high or low temperature?Unfortunately, there is no easy answer to this question. It will depend on your engineering judgement. The following calculation may help to answer this question.12 4 4( ) 0.1 : 0.1 0.004( 300) (6.8 10 )( 300 )It might be reasonable that this will give a low temperature (?) neglect the radiation term0.1 0.004( 300), 325 , not really that low but let'sS SS Sa W Power q T TT T K 12 4 4radiation check.Based on this temperature, the radiation contribution will beq (6.8 10 )( 300 ) 0.021( )and it is small compared to 0.1 W so it is reasonable to neglect the radiation sinceit doesST W not contribute significantly to the heat loss.
