Industrial representatives claim that the ambient air quality standard for SO, is so low that one exceeds it if one strikes a simple wooden match in a modest-sized room. Is this true? (a) Calculate the concentration expected for striking such a match in a room that is 15' x 15' x 8'. A typical 2-inch wooden match contains, approximately, 2.5 mg of S. (b) Compare the resulting concentration to the annual average SO, ambient air quality standard.

A cold-storage warehouse is to be constructed of a number of individual rooms that are maintained at various temperatures. The walls of one room are constructed of 4 inches thick masonry on the outside of 0.5 inches thick plywood on the side. Sandwiched between the masonry and plywood is glass fiber insulation that is 3.5 inches thick. The inside-wall temperature is to be maintained at −10°F and the outside-wall temperature is 70°F. As a first step in sizing the required cooling unit, determine the heat flow the wall on a per-square-foot basis.
