A composite plane wall consists of a 5-in.-thick layer of insulation (ks = 0.029 Btu/h ft. "R) and a 0.75-in.-thick layer of siding (k, = 0.058 Btu/h-ft-°R). The inner temperature of the insulation is 67°F. The outer temperature of the siding is 0°F. Determine at steady state (a) the temperature at the interface of the two layers, in °F, and (b) the rate of heat transfer through the wall in Btu/h-ft² of surface area.

1. Humans are able to control their rates of heat production and heat loss to maintain a nearly constant core temperature of Te = 37°C under a wide range of environmental conditions. This process is called thermoregulation. From the perspective of calculating heat transfer between a human body and its surroundings, we focus on a layer of skin: fat, with its outer surface exposed to the environment and its inner surface at a temperature slightly less than the core temperature, T = 35°C = 308 K. Consider a person with a skin/fat layer of thickness L = mm and effective thermal conductivity k = 0.3 "- The person has a surface area A = 1.8 m? and is dressed in a bathing suit. The m· K emissivity of the skin is ɛ = 0.95. a). When the person is in still air at T = 282 K, what is the skin surface temperature and rate of heat loss to the environment? Convection heat transfer to the air is characterized by a free convection coefficient of h 2 m2 -K b). When the person is in water at T = 282,…
Exercise 4.6.2 An insulation system around a cylindrical pipe consists of two different lay- ers. The first layer immediately on the outer surface of the pipe is made of glass wool and the second one is constructed using plaster of Paris. The cylinder diameter is 10 cm and each insulating layer is 1 cm thick. The thermal conductivity of the glass wool is 0.04 W/m°C and that of the plaster is 0.06 W/m °C. The cylinder carries hot oil at a temperature of 92°C, and the atmospheric temperature outside is 15°C. If the heat transfer coefficient from the outer surface of the insulation to the atmosphere is 15 W/m- C, calculate the temperature at the interface between the two insulating materials and on the outer surface.

Express final answers in foursignificant figures.
A furnace wall is to be designed to transmit a maximum heat flux of 220 Btu/hr.ft of wall area. The inside and outside wall temperatures are to be 2200 • F and 320 ° F. Determine the most economical arrangement of bricks measuring (9 in x 4; in x 3 in).
