11. CD mmh A composite rod is made from stainless steel and iron and has a length of 0.50 m. The cross section of this composite rod is shown in the drawing and consists of a square within a circle. The square cross section of the steel is 1.0 cm on a side. The temperature at one end of the rod is 78 °C, while it is 18 °C at the other end. Assuming that no heat exits through the cylin- drical outer surface, find the total amount of heat Iron Stainless steel conducted through the rod in two minutes.

Answer within 10 minutes : The temperature at the inside surface of an oven is 460 oF. The inside wall of the oven is made of brick and is 8 inch thick. The thermal conductivity of the brick is 2.2 Btu/hr.ft2.(oF/ft). The outside of the oven is covered with a 3-inch layer of asbestos as insulation, which has a thermal conductivity of 0.11 Btu/hr.ft2.(oF/ft). If the outer surface of the insulation has a temperature of 100 oF , calculate the amount of heat lost through 2 ft2 of wall area in 3 hours.
A chromel–constantan thermocouple measuring the temperature of a fluid is connected by mistake with copper–constantan extension leads (such that the two constantan wires are connected together and the copper extension lead wire is connected to the chromel thermocouple wire). If the fluid temperature was actually 250 C and the junction between the thermocouple and extension leads was at 90 C, what e.m.f. would be measured at the open ends of the extension leads if the reference junction is maintained at 0 C? What fluid temperature would be deduced from this (assuming that the connection error was not known)?
2. The 40mm diameter steel rod AB shown in Figure 2 is resting on frictionless rollers between two steel plates. End A is just touching the left hand steel plate. Steel plate Steel plate А 1500mm Imm Figure 2 There is a gap of 1mm between the end B and the right hand side steel plate. The temperature of the rod increases by an amount AT and this increase in temperature causes the two ends of the rod to press against the steel plates. This action causes the right hand steel plate to move to the right by 0.5mm while the left hand plate does not move. The Young's modulus value for steel is 210,00ON/mm?. Taking any assumptions that you deem necessary calculate the increase in temperature AT required to cause the rod to buckle.
