A thermal window, with an area of 6.0m ^ 2, is constructed of two layers of glass, each 4.0mm thick, separated from each other by a 5.0mm air gap. If the inner surface is at 20.0 ° C and the outer surface is at -5.0 ° C, what is the rate of energy transfer by conduction through the window? The thermal conductivity of glass is 0.8 W⁄ (m. ° C) and that of air is 0.023 W⁄ (m. ° C)
The side surfaces of a 3-m-high cubic industrial furnace burning natural gas are not insulated, and the temperature at the outer surface of this section is measured to be 110°C. The temperature of the furnace room, including its surfaces, is 30°C, and the emissivity of the outer surface of the furnace is 0.7. It is proposed that this section of the furnace wall be insulated with glass wool insulation (k = 0.038 W/m·K) wrapped by a reflective sheet (« = 0.2) in order to reduce the heat loss by 90 percent. Assuming the outer surface temperature of the metal section still remains at about 110°C, determine the thickness of the insulation that needs to be used. The furnace operates continuously throughout the year and has an efficiency of 78 percent. The price of the natural gas is $1.10/therm (1 therm = 105,500 kJ of energy content). If the installation of the insulation will cost $550 for materials and labor, determine how long it will take for the insulation to pay for itself from the…
