(7.16) A refrigerated truck is used to transport food. The roof of the container is of composite construction, consisting of a layer of foamed urethane insulation (d2​=50 mm,k2​=0.026 W/mK) sandwiched between aluminum alloy panels (d1​=5 mm,k1​=180 W/mK ). This construction keeps the internal surface temperature of the roof constant and equal to Ts,i​=−10∘C. The superficial area of the roof is 35 m2( L=10 m, W=3.5 m). In a normal day, the truck moves at a speed of 105 km/h, the air temperature is Tin​=32∘C, and there is solar irradiation incident on the roof with a magnitude of Gs​=800 W/m2. Assume turbulent flow over the entire length of the roof and consider the solar absorptivity and emissivity of the outer surface equal to ε=α=0.5. Calculate the average external roof temperature (Ts,o​), and corresponding heat load imposed on the refrigeration system. If the roof is not insulated (d2​=0), calculate the corresponding values of the surface temperature and the heat load.
