EMM 3218 Heat Transfer

Semester 2, 2018/2019

List of suggested review questions for Test 1

TOPIC: Steady state conduction

Dear all students,

Please find below list of suggested questions for you to do and review as part of your preparation for
Test 1. This list is provided to you to give some ideas on most of the topics included in Test 1. Please
note, however, that this list is by no means exhaustive. In other words, you should also study and
review other lessons you have learnt in this course related to steady state conduction and you
should also try solving other questions. Additionally, please note also that your test questions may
be different than these suggested questions to test your understanding but doing these exercises
should help you to prepare better for your test.

The following problem numbers are referring to the book by Incropera et al.,, Foundations of Heat
Transfer, Sixth Edition, John Wiley & Sons, 2013.

1. Problem 2.29
2. Problem 2.30
3. Problem 2.32
4. Problem 2.34
5. Problem 2.40
6. Problem 3.5
7. Problem 3.7
8. Problem 3.10
9. Problem 3.12
10. Problem 3.19

Additional notes:

1. Please study and review the governing equation for conduction problem and how to use it
to solve conduction problem.
2. Formulas are not given and no resources are allowed during exam.
3. Please familiar yourself with terms relevant to this topic such as conductivity, convection
coefficient, internal energy generation, plane wall, and many more. Expect no symbols in the
test questions.

All the best.
