Consider a small pot with a copper base. The base has a thickness of 2.0 mm and a diameter of 15 cm. Water in this pot is boiling at 100 °C. Heat transfer rate is estimated at 250,000 J/s. Assume that heat enters the water only from the bottom of the pot through the copper base. Find the temperature of the heating element on which the copper bottom rests.

To defog the rear window of an automobile, a very thin transparent heating element is attached to the inner surface of the window. A uniform heat flux of 1300 W/m2 is provided to the heating element for defogging a rear window with thickness of 5 mm. The interior temperature of the automobile is 22°C and the convection heat transfer coefficient is 15 W/m2·K. The outside ambient temperature is -5°C and the convection heat transfer coefficient is 100 W/m2·K. If the thermal conductivity of the window is 1.2 W/m·K, determine the inner surface temperature of the window.
