The effective thermal conductivity kefffor

Chapter 9, Problem 9.100

(choose chapter or problem)

The effective thermal conductivity kefffor concentriccylinders and concentric spheres is provided in Equa-tions 9.59 and 9.62, respectively. Derive expressionsfor the critical Rayleigh numbers associated with thecylindrical and spherical geometries, Rac,critand Ras,crit,respectively, below which keffis minimized. EvaluateRac,critand Ras,crit for air, water, and glycerin at a meantemperature of 300 K. For specified inner and outersurface temperatures and inner cylinder or sphere radii,comment on the heat transfer rate for outer cylinderor sphere radii corresponding to Rac,critand Ras,crit,respectively
