A thin electrical heater is fitted between two long, concentric cylinders with inner and outer radii of 20 mm and 40 mm. The inner solid cylinder (A) has a thermal conductivity kA = 0.15 W/m-K. The outer cylinder (B) has a thermal conductivity kB = 1.5 W/m-K and its surface is subjected to convection with a fluid temperature T = -15o C and a heat transfer coefficient of 50 W/m2 -K.

The missing part of the question ; The quesion continue by saying we should calculate the heat transfer per unit lenght required to maintain and outside temperature of 5degree celsius.

Explanation:

Given kA = 0.15 W/m-K, r1 = 20 mm (0.02m), r2 = 40mm(0.04m), kB = 1.5 W/m-K, h = 50 W/m2 -K, T∞ = -15 degree celsius

from heat transfer in a cylindrical shell ;

Q/L = TA - T∞ / ln(r2/r1)/ 2πkB + 1/2πhr2

Plugging the values into the equation ;

Q/L = 5 - (-15) / (ln 0.04/0.02) / 2x3.142x1.5 + 1/2x3.142x50x0.04

Q/L = 130.614W/m is the heat transfer per unit length

the design of a ski jumping suit involves a trade-off between giving the skiers lift to get higher jumps and ensuring the skier does not face a lot of drag before the jump itself. an expansive suit may to lift the skier higher, but at the same time, it will also increase the air resistance. higher air resistance as the skier goes down the slope limits the speed of the jump. a big suit also increases the risk of losing balance or control, especially if there's a strong gust of wind. while technologically enhanced suits a lot, clothing is not the only factor in a ski jumper’s success. gathering speed while skiing down the slope, ensuring good speed on the ramp, and maintaining good body posture and form in the air all contribute to a ski jumper's success.
