- Q2According to Fourier's law of heat conduction, what does 'k' represent?Heat transfer rate (W)Temperature gradient (K/m)Thermal conductivity (W/mK)Area normal to conduction (m²)30s
- Q3Which law governs convection heat transfer according to the text?Newton's law of coolingStefan's Boltzmann LawFourier's law of conductionFirst Law of Thermodynamics30s
- Q4What is the primary factor that affects the convective heat transfer coefficient 'h'?Color of the surfaceNature of convection (Free/forced/mixed)Distance from heat sourceMaterial type of the surface30s
- Q5What is the definition of emissivity?The total energy radiated by a bodyThe ratio of radiation emitted by a surface to that emitted by a black body at the same temperature.The intensity of radiation emitted per unit areaThe fraction of incident radiation absorbed30s
- Q6In a heat exchanger, what is the role of the overall heat transfer coefficient (U)?It determines the thermal conductivity of the materialIt describes the geometry of the heat exchangerIt measures the heat transfer rate per unit area per degree of temperature difference.It indicates the maximum heat that can be transferred30s
- Q7What term describes the resistance to heat transfer due to the build-up of unwanted materials on heat exchanger surfaces?Fouling factorThermal resistanceHeat transfer coefficientTemperature gradient30s
- Q8What is a characteristic of a black body in radiation heat transfer?It absorbs all incident radiation.It reflects all incident radiation.It emits less radiation than a gray body.It has a constant emissivity value.30s
- Q9What does the term 'LMTD' stand for in heat exchanger analysis?Local Mean Temperature DistributionLast Maximum Temperature DifferenceLongitudinal Mean Temperature DifferenceLogarithmic Mean Temperature Difference30s
- Q10According to the Stefan-Boltzmann law, how is the total radiation energy emitted by a black body related to its absolute temperature?It is inversely proportional to the square of the absolute temperature.It is directly proportional to the fourth power of the absolute temperature.It has no relation to temperature.It is directly proportional to the absolute temperature only.30s
