The wall of a furnace is made up of a material which has thermal conductivity of 3.5 W/m◦C and a thicknesses 400 mm. The inner side of the furnace wall is exposed to hot gases at 1000 ⁰C with a convection coefficient of 40 W/m2⁰C and the inside the surface of the wall is at 600 ⁰C. The air outside the furnace is at 18 ⁰C with a convection coefficient of 15 W/m2⁰C. Draw a clear diagram representing the system                                Determine the temperature of the outside surface of the furnace The rate of heat loss from the furnace.

Question

The wall of a furnace is made up of a material which has thermal conductivity of 3.5 W/m◦C and a thicknesses 400 mm. The inner side of the furnace wall is exposed to hot gases at 1000 ⁰C with a convection coefficient of 40 W/m2⁰C and the inside the surface of the wall is at 600 ⁰C. The air outside the furnace is at 18 ⁰C with a convection coefficient of 15 W/m2⁰C.

  1. Draw a clear diagram representing the system                               
  2. Determine the temperature of the outside surface of the furnace
  3. The rate of heat loss from the furnace.
