A high-speed computer is located in a temperature controlled room of 26?C. When the machine is operating
Question:
A high-speed computer is located in a temperature controlled room of 26?C. When the machine is operating its internal heat generation rate is estimated to be 800 W. The external surface temperature is to be maintained below 85?C. The heat transfer coefficient for the surface of the computer is estimated to be 10 W/(m2 K). What surface area would be necessary to assure safe operation of this machine? Comment on ways to reduce this area.GIVENA high-speed computer in a temperature controlled roomTemperature of the room (T??) = 26?CMaximum surface temperature of the computer (Tc) = 85?CHeat transfer coefficient (U) = 10 W/(m K)Internal heat generation (qG ) = 800 WASSUMPTIONSThe system is in steadystate
