QUESTION 1 Quarter of the area of a 5m x 3m outside wall of a house is made of glass windows. The wall is 15 cm thick and has an average thermal conductivity of 0.8 W/m K. The window glass is 8 mm thick and has an average thermal conductivity of 0.15 W/m K. On a winter day the inside temperature of the wall and the glass is 20°C, and the outside air temperature is -10°C. The outside convection heat...

The wall of a house is 3 m high, 10 m long and 30 cm thick; it has an effective thermal conductivity of 10 W/m K. The outer surface of the wall has an emissivity of 0.75. On a winter night, the outer surface of this wall is at a temperature of 0 °C and the air is at a temperature of –10 °C. The heat transfer coefficient for the outside wall is 8 W/m2 K. The outside wall also...

Consider a 34 cm thick concrete wall with a thermal conductivity of 0.82 W/m·K. The temperature of the left surface is held constant at 42°C, whereas the right face is exposed to a flow of 12°C air with a convection heat transfer coefficient of 23 W/m2·K. Neglecting heat transfer by radiation, find the right wall surface temperature and the heat flux through the wall.

Compare the rate of heat conduction through a 12 cm thick wall that has an area of 15 m2 and a thermal conductivity twice that of glass wool, k=0.042, with the rate of heat conduction through a window, k=0.84, that is 0.8 cm thick and that has an area of 2.75 m2, assuming a temperature difference of 12 °C across each. (a) What is the heat transfer rate through the wall? QtQt = unit (b) What is the heat transfer rate...

Figure Q2(b) shows the composite wall of a freezing
plant which consists of a 10 cm layer of corkboard on the inside
and 14 cm layer of concrete on the outside, with an area of 1 m2.
The temperature on the inside corkboard surface is -20 °C, and the
temperature on the outside concrete surface is 24 °C. The thermal
conductivity for corkboard is 0.04 W/m.K and for concrete is 0.8
W/m.K.

A 15 cm diameter, 2 cm thick sight glass installed in the wall of a glass fired boiler allows the operator to observe conditions inside the boiler during operation. During normal boiler operation, the inside surface of the sight glass is 130C. Due to natural convection current in the warm boiler room, air at 35C flows vertically across the outside surface of the sight glass, giving the heat transfer coefficient of 25 ?/?2 ?. The sight glass is made of...
