A copper rod, 6 mm in diameter is heated by flow of an electric current. The surface of the rod is maintained at 200°C, while it dissipates heat by convectlon, with h= 150 W/m.K into an ambient at 25°C. If the rod is covered with 2 mm thick coating (k = 0.75 W/m.K), will the heat loss from the rod decrease or increase?
