A prospective client attending the forum has requested consultancy services. You have requested the specifications of the system and the client informs you that the exterior walls of a building are a composite consisting of 12mm thick plaster board, 52mm thick urethane foam, and 12mm thick soft wood. On a typical winter day, the outside and inside air temperatures are -14°C and 23°C respectively. The outer and inner convection coefficients are 15W/mK and 5W/mK respectively. c) Calculate the heating loss for a 1m² section of the wall. d) What is the heating loss if the composite wall is replaced by a window consisting of two 3.5mm thick glass panes separated by a 5mm thick stagnant air gap. State simplifying assumptions. Use the following thermal conductivity values: Plaster board, kp = 0.17 W/mK Urethane foam, k = 0.026 W/mK Wood, Kw = 0.12 W/mK Glass, kg = 1.4 W/mK Air, ka = 0.0263 W/mK

John is employed by a new food processing plant where eggs are to be boiled in large quantities to produce egg salad. John has been assigned the task of determining the minimum cooking time for the eggs, utilizing his vast knowledge of heat transfer. As a basis of calculation, he assumed that the eggs are perfect spheres with a diameter of 5 cm and uniform material properties (r =1000kg/m'; Cp = 3300 J/(kg K) and k=0.75 W/(m-K)). The eggs were taken from a cold storage room at 5°C and immediately put into pots of boiling water at 100°C. The convective heat transfer coefficient of the water is h = 1500 W/m°K. For health safety reasons, the plant requires that the entire egg must be at a temperature above 75°C for at least 20 seconds in order for the cooking process to be complete. a. What is the minimum time necessary to cook the egg to company specifications? b. In the testing lab, John forgot to remove a batch of eggs, and they remained in the cooking pot long enough to reach a…

Show the thermal circuit by labeling all the thermal resistances. Calculate and tabulate the thermal resistances (assume Tavg=470 K for the air gaps). If q''rad= 0.25W/cm^2, what is the outer surface temperature of turnout coat for inner temperature of 66C.
2. Clothing made of several thin layers of fabric with trapped air in between, often called ski clothing, is commonly used in cold climates because it is light, fashionable, and a very effective thermal insulator. So it is no surprise that such clothing has largely replaced thick and heavy old- fashioned coats. Multilayered ski jacket REBUT
Air has a very low thermal conductivity. This explains whywe feel comfortable wearing short sleeves in a 20°C environment eventhough our body temperature is 37°C. Material objects feel cooler to ourimmediate touch than the air, owing to relatively high thermal conductivities.(a) Touch a few surfaces in a room-temperature environment andrank them in order of which feel the coolest to which feel the warmest.Objects that feel cooler have larger thermal conductivities. Consider awood surface, a metallic surface, and a glass surface, and rank these inorder from coolest to warmest
