  1. Adrian is trying to heat up a sphere (radius = 0.05 m) of unknown material in a furnace. She wants to know how long it will take for the object to heat up to 300°C when moved from room temperature (25°C) to a 600°C furnace. Use the following information to determine the time (in minutes) it will take for the sphere to reach 300°C after transfer to the furnace.

    Make sure to show validation for any equations that you use.

Density of object = 7400 kg/m3

Specific heat capacity = 520 J/(kg*K)

Conductivity = 50 W/(m*K)

Heat Transfer Coefficient = 45 W/(m2*K)

The fluid in a heat exchanger in a process plant needs to be warmed up prior to having process startup. The shell side of the heat exchanger contains the process fluid (water) while the tube side is supplied with steam at 150°C to facilitate the heating. Assume the exterior is well insulated such that heat losses are negligible. a) Derive the ODE and analytically solve for the function that describes the temperature of the fluid in the heat exchanger with...
