A Simple Solar Collector Is Built By Placing A 9 5 Cm Diameter Clear Plastic Tube Around A Garden Hose Whose Outer Diame 1 (31.82 KiB) Viewed 36 times

A simple solar collector is built by placing a 9.5−cm-diameter clear plastic tube around a garden hose whose outer diameter is 3.4 cm. The hose is painted black to maximize solaryabsorption, and some plastic rings are used to keep the spacing between the hose and the clear plastic cover constant. During a clear day, the temperature of the hose is measured to be 65∘C, while the ambient air temperature is 26∘C. Determine the rate of heat loss from the water in the hose per meter of its length by natural convection. The properties of air at the anticipated average temperature T=50∘C and 1 atm pressure are k=0.02735 W/m⋅∗C,V=1.798×10−5 m2/s,Pr=0.7228, and β=0.003096 K−1 Evaluate air properties at an average temperature of 50∘C and 1 atm pressure. The rate of heat loss by convection is W.
