6. a. The heat flux applied to the walls of the biomass combustion furnace is 20 W/m2. The furnace walls have a thickness of 10 mm and a thermal conductivity of 12 W/m.K. If the wall surface temperature is measured to be 50oC on the left and 30oC on the right, prove that conduction heat transfer occurs at a steady state!
b. Heating the iron cylinder on the bottom side is done by placing the iron on the hotplate. This iron has a length of 20 cm. The surface temperature of the hotplate is set at 300oC while the top side of the iron is in contact with the still outside air. To reach the desired hotplate temperature, it takes 5 minutes. Then it takes 15 minutes to measure the temperature of the upper side of the iron cylinder at 300oC. Show 3 proofs that heat transfer occurs transiently

- 2. A steel plate of k=50w/mk and thickness 10cm passes a heat flux by conduction of 25kW/m² . If the temperature of hot surface of plate is 100C, then what is the temperature of the cooler side of plate?arrow_forwardif you are unable to answer all parts, please do part 4 and 5. thanksarrow_forward2. A glass window has an area of 5.5 ft² and a thickness of 5 mm. If one side is at a temperature of 45° F and the other is at 23 F, how much thermal energy (BTU/year) flows through the window in one year? The thermal conductivity of glass is 1.89x10-4 kcal/m-s-K.arrow_forward

The hydration process in the concrete (k=0.84 W/mK) produces an intenal heat generation at a constant rate of 100 W/m3. If the surface temperature of both sides of the slab is 16°C, determine the maximum temperature in the slab. O a. 16 °C O b. 27 °C OC. 37 °C O d. 47 °C O e. 17 °C O f.

Initially, the temp. of the steel from the heat treatment is 500C. The total effective heat transfer coefficient is 18 W/m2-K. How long will it take for the surface of the cube to be within 28 C of the room temp.?arrow_forward
- Good Day, Kindly help me with this problem, Thank you P.S. T= 30 degreesarrow_forwardA) Answer the question shown in the imagearrow_forwardIn a glass plant in Cavite, a furnace has fire-brick walls made up of the following two materials in series : Non-corrosive brick as inner layer (material 1) Clay brick as outer layer (material 2) Thickness 4.5 inches 8 inches Thermal conductivity k1 k2 The temperature inside the furnace (inside wall surface of the non-corrosive brick) is found to be 1105 oF while the outside temperature (outside wall surface of clay brick) is 365 oF. This is not the desired temperature inside the furnace so engineers thought of lagging the furnace walls with another material to reduce heat loss. The additional lagging material consists of magnesia layer which is 2 inches thick and has a thermal conductivity of 0.04 Btu /h.ft.oF. During a test run on the furnace with the magnesia lagging material now, new temperature readings were recorded : Point of measurement Temperature reading Inside furnace (inside wall surface of non-corrosive brick 1355 oF Interface between…arrow_forward
- I need complete solutions and 4 decimal places in all solutions.arrow_forwardI am struggling with this question. Part a and barrow_forwarda. The wall of a building has a surface area of 50 m2. The outside layer of the wall is 20 cm thick concrete with thermal conductivity kcon = .8 W/m-K. The inner layer is 10 cm thick balsa wood (kbalsa = .048 W/m-K) as an insulator. Outside temperatures of 47o C are expected, while an inside temperature of 21o C is maintained by the cooling system. Find the rate of heat transfer through the wall.arrow_forward
