Calculate biot number for the object


In each case, calculate the Biot number for the object and indicate whether or not the lumped approximation is valid.

a) A carbon-steel rod of length 2m and diameter 10cm is set in a crossfow of air, which results in a convective heat transfer coecient of 2*( W/m^2K).

b) A teflon sphere of diameter 20cm is dunked in an agitated tank of oil, which results in a convective heat transfer coecient of 20*( W/m^2K).
