An electrical current of 73.5A flows through a cable having a diameter of 5.00mm and a resistivity of 6.90×10-7Ohm-meter.The cable is AISI 304 stainless steel. The cable is in an environment having a temperature of 30.0° C and a total heat transfer convection coefficient of 25.0W per square meter degree C.
a. If the cable is bare,what is it surface temperature?
b. What is the maximum (centerline) temperature in the cable?
This problem is based on heat generation in a cylinder. Detailed solution is shown below-
