Heat Transfer
481. Which of the following situations can be approximated to a steady state heat transfer system?
- A red hot steel slab (having outside surface temperature as 1300°C) exposed to the atmospheric air at 35°C
- 10 kg of dry saturated steam at 8 kgf/cm2 flowing through a short length of stainless steel pipe exposed to atmospheric air at 35°C
- Boiling brine kept in open vessel when the bottom surface temperature of the vessel is maintained constant at 180°C
