Test: Steady & Unsteady Heat Transfer - Question 1

Regarding one dimensional heat transfer, choose the correct statement

Detailed Solution: Question 1

In case of one dimensional heat flow steady state is a function of x coordinate only while unsteady state is a function of x coordinate and time only.

Test: Steady & Unsteady Heat Transfer - Question 2

Which statement is true regarding steady state condition?

Detailed Solution: Question 2

Heat influx is always equal to heat efflux. It is a function of space coordinates only.

Test: Steady & Unsteady Heat Transfer - Question 3

Which of the following is an example of steady state heat transfer?

Detailed Solution: Question 3

System is a perfect black body.

Test: Steady & Unsteady Heat Transfer - Question 4

Heat transfer in a long, hollow cylinder which is maintained at uniform but different temperatures on its inner and outer surfaces may be assumed to be taking place in which direction?

Detailed Solution: Question 4

Ambient temperature is uniform on the periphery of cylinder and temperature is uniform. So it takes place in radial direction only.

Test: Steady & Unsteady Heat Transfer - Question 5

Heat transfer takes place according to which law?

Detailed Solution: Question 5

Second law states about heat transfer between source and sink.

Test: Steady & Unsteady Heat Transfer - Question 6

Heat transfer takes place in liquids and gases is majorly due to

Test: Steady & Unsteady Heat Transfer - Question 7

The appropriate rate equation for convective heat transfer between a surface and adjacent fluid is prescribed by

Detailed Solution: Question 7

The rate equation used to describe the mechanism of convection is called Newton’s law of cooling when the solid surface is cooled by fluid.

Test: Steady & Unsteady Heat Transfer - Question 8

Identify the wrong statement

Detailed Solution: Question 8

Heat flows from higher to lower temperature.

Test: Steady & Unsteady Heat Transfer - Question 9

During a cold winter season, a person prefers to sit near a fire. Which of the following modes of heat transfer provides him the maximum heat?

Detailed Solution: Question 9

Heat transfer by radiation can occur between two bodies even when they are separated by a medium colder than both of them.

Test: Steady & Unsteady Heat Transfer - Question 10

Most unsteady heat flow occurs

Detailed Solution: Question 10

Under steady state condition, with time there is a change in temperature i.e. temperature field is a function of space and time.
