Ice has formed on a shallow pond, and a steady state has been reached, with the air above the ice at5.0潞颁and the bottom of the pond at.4.0潞颁 If the total depth of ice + water is,1.4m how thick is the ice? (Assume that the thermal conductivities of ice and water are0.40and, 0.12cal/m.0C.srespectively.)

Short Answer

Expert verified

The thickness of the ice is.1.13鈥尘

Step by step solution

01

Write given data

a) Temperature of air above ice,TL=5.0鈥塁

b)Temperature at the bottom of the pond,TH=4.0鈥塁

c) Depth of ice + water,d=1.4鈥尘

d) Thermal conductivity of ice,kice=0.40calmCs

e) Thermal conductivity of water,data-custom-editor="chemistry" kwater=0.12calmCs

02

Determine the concept of thermal conductivity

The rate of heat transfer by conduction, a temperature gradient that exits perpendicular to the area through the unit cross-section area of a material is referred to as the thermal conductivity of a material. Considering that the heat transfer at the interface of ice and water is equal, we can get the required value of the thickness of the ice.

Formula:

The heat transferred by the body due to thermal conductivity of a material,

Q=kATL 鈥︹ (i)

Here, kis the thermal conductivity of the material, Ais the area of the cross section, iTs the temperature difference between two surfaces of the material andL is the thickness of the material.

03

Calculate the thickness of the ice 

The interface between the ice and the water is atTX=0.0C.

The heat transferred from bottom of the water to the interface of ice-water is equal to the heat transferred to the ice as the heat transfers from high to low temperature points.

Now, assuming the area through which heat transferred to be equal, the thickness of the ice can be calculated using equation (i) as follows:

kwaterA(THTX)LLice=kiceA(TXTC)Lice(0.12)A(4.000.00)1.4Lice=(0.40)A(0.00+5.00)Lice0.481.4Lice=2Lice0.241.4Lice=1Lice

Solve further as:

0.24Lice=1.4Lice1.24Lice=1.4Lice=1.41.24mLice=1.13鈥尘

Hence, the thickness of the ice is .1.13鈥尘
