Following harvest and separation from producing plants, glucose is catabolized to produce carbon dioxide, water vapor, and heat, with attendant internal energy generation. Consider a carton of apples, each of 80-mm diameter, which is ventilated with air at 5"C and a velocity of 0.5 m/'s. The corresponding value of the heat transfer coefficient is 7.5 W/m-K. Within each apple thermal energy is uniformly generated at a total rate of 4000 J/kgday. The density and thermal conductivity of the apple are 840 kg/m' and 0.5 W/mk, respectively. Apple, D = 80 mm q = 4000 J/kg.day p = 840 kg/ms, k = 0.5 W/m.K 4. K. To Air To 50C V=0.5 m/s h =7.5 W/m2-K QCV (a) Determine the apple center and surface temperatures. (b) For the stacked arrangement of apples within the crate, the convection coefficient depends on the velocity as h = C1 10425, where Ci = 10.1 W/m K(m/s)0425. Compute and plot the center temperature as a function of the air velocity for 0.1
