The wall of a cold storage room is composed of brick, concrete and cork insulation with thickness of 11cm, 7.5cm, and 10 cm, respectively. The air temperature inside the room is maintained at -18°C while the exterior surface (i.e. brick) is at 18°C. Thermal conductivity for brick, concrete and cork is 0.69, 0.76 and 0.043 J/m-s-°C, respectively. Calculate the rate of heat transfer for each square meter of wall area, and the temperature at the brick-concrete and concrete-cork interfaces.

6. a. The heat flux applied to the walls of the biomass combustion furnace is 20 W/m2. The furnace walls have a thickness of 10 mm and a thermal conductivity of 12 W/m.K. If the wall surface temperature is measured to be 50oC on the left and 30oC on the right, prove that conduction heat transfer occurs at a steady state!b. Heating the iron cylinder on the bottom side is done by placing the iron on the hotplate. This iron has a length of 20 cm. The surface temperature of the hotplate is set at 300oC while the top side of the iron is in contact with the still outside air. To reach the desired hotplate temperature, it takes 5 minutes. Then it takes 15 minutes to measure the temperature of the upper side of the iron cylinder at 300oC. Show 3 proofs that heat transfer occurs transiently
Give an example of application of the Oth law of thermodynamics in everyday life. List explicitly Systems 1, 2, and 3 and what is the purpose of them being at the same temperature.
A house, for cooling purposes, consists of two zones: the atric area zone A and the living area zone B (see below figure). The living area is cooled by a 2 -ton air conditioning unit that removes 23,000 Btu/hr. The heat capacity of zone B is 1/6 °F per thousand Btu. The time constant for heat transfer between zone A and the outside is 3ℎr, between zone B and the outside is 6ℎr, and between the two zones is 6ℎr. If the outside temperature stays at 90°F, how warm does it eventually get in the attic zone A ?
Name an example from daily life (different from the text) for each mechanism of heat transfer.
