An air heater may be fabricated by coiling Nichrome wire and passing air in cross flow over the wire. Consider a heater fabricated from wire of diameter D=1 mm, electrical resistivity rhoe=10−6Ω⋅m, thermal conductivity k=25W/m⋅K, and emissivity ε=0.20. The heater is designed to deliver air at a temperature of T[infinity]=50∘C under flow conditions that provide a convection coefficient of h=250W/m2⋅K for the wire. The temperature of the housing that encloses the wire and through which the air flows is Tsur=50∘C. If the maximum allowable temperature of the wire is Tmax=1200∘C, what is the maximum allowable electric current I? If the maximum available voltage is ΔE=110V, what is the corresponding length L of wire that may be used in the heater and the power rating of the heater? Hint: In your solution, assume negligible temperature variations within the wire, but after obtaining the desired results, assess the validity of this assumption.
