Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

In a thermal system where two surfaces, A and B, have areas of 10 m2 and 20 m2 respectively, and the view factors are F12 = 0.3 and F21 = 0.6. Verify if the reciprocity condition holds.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember to calculate the products carefully to check reciprocity.

Question 2

You have a system of 5 surfaces where the view factor from surface 1 to others adds to 1.2. What does this signify about your calculations?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Analyze your summation to see where extra fractions might have come from.
