The wall of a furnace has a thickness of 5 cm and thermal conductivity
of 0.7 W/m-°C. The inside surface is heated by convection with a hot
gas at 402°C and a heat transfer coefficient of 37 W/m²-°C. The
outside surface has an emissivity of 0.8 and is exposed to air at 27°C
with a heat transfer coefficient of 20 W/m²-ºC. Assume that the
furnace is inside a large room with walls, floor and ceiling at 27°C.
Show the thermal circuit and determine the heat flux through the
furnace wall.

To save fuel during the heating season it is suggested that glass windows
be covered at night with a 1.2 cm layer of polystyrene. Estimate the
percent savings in energy and discuss the feasibility of this idea. Show
the thermal circuit with and without the insulation panel. Consider a typical
case of 0.2 cm thick window glass with inside and outside heat transfer
coefficients of 6 and 32 W/m²-ºC.

- One end of a thin uniform rod of mass m and length 31 rests against a smooth vertical wall. The other end of the rod is attached by a string of length 1 to a fixed point O which is located a distance 21 from the wall. A horizontal force of magnitude F₁ is applied to the lower end of the rod as shown. Assuming the rod and the string remain in the same vertical plane perpendicular to the wall, find the angle 0 between the rod and the wall at the position of static equilibrium.
