Consider steady heat transfer through a 5-m 6-m brick wall of a house of thickness 30 cm. On a day when the temperature of the outdoors is 0°C, the house is maintained at 27°C. The temperatures of the inner and outer surfaces of the brick wall are measured to be 20°C and 5°C, respectively, and the rate of heat transfer through the wall is 1035 W.

A gas in a cylinder fitted with a piston undergoes a cycle composed of three processes.First the gas expands at constant pressure with a heat addition of 401 J and a work output of 10.0 J. Then it is cooled at constant volume by a removal of 50.0 J of heat. Finally, an adiabatic process restores the gas to its initial state. Determine(i) the work of the adiabatic process and(ii) the stored energy of the gas at each of the other two states if its stored energy in the initial state is assigned the value of zero.Sketch the cycle on the pressure – volume and temperature – entropy diagrams
A device expends 164.65 kJ of energy while pressurizing 8.391 kg of water initially at 17.68°C. The efficiency of the heating device is 68.7%. Inefficiencies are represented by a heat loss from the device casing. Determine the final temperature in °C.
A rigid tank contains air at 40°C that is being stirred by a paddle wheel. The paddle wheel does 400 kJ of work on the air (R=0.287 kJ/kgK, cv=0.718 kJ/kgK, and cp=1.005 kJ/kgK). It is observed that the temperature of the air remains constant during this process as a result of heat transfer between the system and the surroundings at 30°C.
