Atank contains liquid nitrogen at -190℃ is suspended in a vacuum shell by three stainless steel rods 0.80 cm in diameter and 3 meters long with a thermal conductivity of 16.3 w/m^2-℃. if the ambient air outside the vacuum shell is 15℃, calculate the magnitude of the conductive heat flow in watts along the support rods. a. 0.168 b. 0.0587 c. 0.182 d. 0.176

At steady state, air at 200 kpa, 325 k, and mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s enters an insulated duct having differing inlet and exit cross-sectional areas. the inlet cross-sectional area is 6 cm2. at the duct exit, the pressure of the air is 100 kpa and the velocity is 250 m/s. neglecting potential energy effects and modeling air as an 1.008 kj/kg k, determine ideal gas with constant cp = (a) the velocity of the air at the inlet, in m/s. (b) the temperature of the air at the exit, in k. (c) the exit cross-sectional area, in cm2
