Cooled air is flowing through a long sheet metal air conditioning duct, 0.2 m high and 0.3 m wide. If the duct temperature is 10°C and passes through a crawl space under a house at 30°C, estimate

(a) The heat transfer rate to the cooled air per meter length of duct.
(b) The additional air conditioning load if the duct is 20-m-long.
(c) Discuss qualitatively the energy conservation if the duct were insulated with glass
wool.
GIVEN
• An air conditioning duct in a crawl space
• Duct height (H) = 0.2 m
• Duct width (w) = 0.3 m
• Duct temperature (Ts) = 10°C
• Ambient temperature (T?) = 30°C
FIND
(a) The heat transfer rate per meter length (qc/L) to the cooled air in the duct
(b) The additional air conditioning load (q20) if the duct length (L) = 20 m
(c) Discuss qualitatively the energy conservation if the duct were insulated with glass wool
ASSUMPTIONS
• Ambient air is still
• Duct temperature is constant and uniform
• Radiation is negligible
• Edge effects are negligible
• No condensation on the duct surface
