A copper bare wire, stranded, size 4/0 AWG is being tested in a laboratory (free air test), where the ambient temperature is 30 C (86 F). It is assumed that the damage temperature for this wire is 200 C. According to the results of previous tests, a factor h = 28 W/(㎡ K) can be used for a simplified first-order approximation. Using the simplified model described in class: a. Determine what would be the cable's ampere rating (IN) for a rated temperature of 65 C and the given ambient temperature
b. Determine the cable's minimum damage current (Id)
c. Determine the rt=Ky of the wire (approximated damage curve)
d. Plot the approximated damage curve in a log-log scale
e. Plot the "exact" (Approximation 1) damage curve in the same graph and compare. For which current value the two curves are practically equal?
f. Determine and plot the second approximation for the damage curve (T-Ind27t=K',d). Compare the plots of all the three damage curves

Acommercial grade cubical freezer, 4 m on a side, has a composite wall consisting of an exterior sheet of 5.0-mm thick plain carbon steel (kst= 60.5 w/m k), an intermediate layer of 100-mm thick polyurethane insulation (kins 0.02 w/m k), and an inner sheet of 5.0- mm thick aluminium alloy (kal polyurethane insulation and both metallic sheets are each characterized by a thermal contact resistance of r 2.5 x 104 m2 k/w. (a) what is the steady-state cooling load that must be maintained by the refrigerator under conditions for which the outer and inner surface temperatures are 25°c and -5°c, respectively? (b) for power saving purpose, which wall material should be increased/reduced in. thickness in order to reduce 50% of the cooling load found in part (a)? redesign the thickness of the proposed material. 177 w/m-k). adhesive interfaces between the q=575.93 w
