The use of rock pile thermal energy storage systems has been considered for solar energy and industrial process heat applications. a particular system involves a cylindrical container, 2 m long by 1 m in diameter, in which nearly spherical rocks of 0.03-m diameter are packed. the bed has a void space of 0.42, and the density and specific heat of the rock are rho=2300 kg/m^3 and cp=879 j/kg*k, respectively. consider conditions for which atmospheric air is supplied to the rock pile at a steady flow rate of 1 kg/s and a temperature of 90°c. the air flows in the axial direction through the container. if the rock is at a temperature of 25°c, what is the total rate of heat transfer from the air to the rock pile?

Consider a one meter long horizontal pipe with a constant 100 cm^2 cross sectional area. water flows rightward into the pipe at x = 0 with flow velocity 02m/sec at every point within the pipe intake area. at x=1, the rightward flow rate is 0.192 m/sec. assume the water is a conserved quantity in the pipe, so there must be a leak (a sink) somewhere in the pipe. 1. compute net volumetric flow of the source if the system to be in equilibrium. 2. now assume the pipe in the problem has no leaks. compute the net volumetric rate of change for the system.
