A warehouse is being built that will have neither heating nor cooling. Depending on the amount of insulation, the time constant for the building may range from 1 to 4 hr. To illustrate the effect insulation will have on the temperature inside the warehouse, assume the outside temperature varies as a sine wave, with a minimum of 12°C at 2:00 A.M. and a maximum of 32°C at 2:00 P.M. Assuming the exponential term (which involves the initial temperature To) has died off, what is the lowest temperature inside the building if the time constant is 1 hr? If it is 4 hr? What is the highest temperature inside the building if the time constant is 1 hr? If it is 4 hr? If the time constant is 1 hr, then the lowest temperature inside the building is about°C. (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)

Question

A warehouse is being built that will have neither heating nor cooling. Depending on the amount of insulation, the time constant for the building may range from 1 to 4
hr. To illustrate the effect insulation will have on the temperature inside the warehouse, assume the outside temperature varies as a sine wave, with a minimum of
12°C at 2:00 A.M. and a maximum of 32°C at 2:00 P.M. Assuming the exponential term (which involves the initial temperature To) has died off, what is the lowest
temperature inside the building if the time constant is 1 hr? If it is 4 hr? What is the highest temperature inside the building if the time constant is 1 hr? If it is 4 hr?
If the time constant is 1 hr, then the lowest temperature inside the building is about °C.

any help would be much appreciated thanks
An external wall of a building has a U value of 0.50 W/m^2K. The indoor temperature is21 degrees C and the outdoor temperature is -2.0 degrees C The steady-state heat loss is calculated to be 11.5W/m^2 The wall contains a layer of insulation 40 mm thick with a conductivity of0.035 W/mK. What would the insulation thickness need to be in order toreduce the steady state heat loss by 50%? answer = 0.11m please show all working
The temperature distribution in a certain plane wall is: T-Ty =C₁+Cx²+C₁x² Where TI and T2 are the temperatures on each side of the wall. If the thermal conductivity of the wall is constant and the wall thickness is L, derive an expression for the heat generation per unit volume as a function of x, the distance from the plane where T-T1. Let the heat- generation rate be 'q0 at x = 0
I am struggling with this question. Part a and b
My buddy is starting to get hypothermic (body temperature 306 K) during an epic backcountry ski adventure. Since I'm quite warm (body temperature 310 K), I decide to get in a sleeping bag with him to try and warm him up. What heat transfer mechanism will be most responsible for heating him up? For simplicity, ignore any internal temperature differences across my body (that is, assume my skin temperature is also 310 K). Use numbers to support your answer (for human skin, you can use the following values: surface area A = 1:50 m2, emissivity = 0:970, thickness d = 0:0250 m, thermal conductivty 0:200 JmsK)
