A 1 m outer diameter spherical tank made of AISI 304 steel with 10 cm wall
thickness contains solid iced water at 0°C. Air at 25°C flows outside the tank with a
velocity of 1 m/s. Determine the rate of heat transfer to the tank and the mass rate (
m_dot) at which ice melts. Ignore convection effects of the melting ice.
The latent heat of fusion of water at 0°C is 333.7 kJ/kg.

Thanks!

A 3-m-internal-diameter spherical tank made of 1-cm-thick stainless steel is used to store iced water at 0°C. The tank is located outdoors at 18°C. Assume the entire steel tank to be at 0°C and thus the thermal resistance of the tank to be negligible. The heat of fusion of water at atmospheric pressure is hif = 333.7 kJ/kg. The emissivity of the outer surface of the tank is 0.75, and the convection heat transfer coefficient on the outer surface can...

A spherical tank, 1.5 m in diameter, is maintained at a temperature of 120 ◦C and exposed to a convection environment with heat transfer coefficient, h=15 W/m2 ◦C and T∞ =20 ◦C. For the same surface temperature of the tank, it is desired to insulate the tank in order to decrease the heat loss by 45 percent, determine the thickness of insulation layer (k=0.2 W/m ◦C ) and the outer surface temperature.
