Explanation of Solution

DC motor is a device that is used to convert direct current electrical energy into mechanical energy. These motors have internal electromagnetic or electronic mechanisms in order to change the direction of the current flow. DC motors are used in cars, aircrafts and used in other industrial aspects.

The DC motor operates on the principle of attraction and repulsion which states that when a current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, the conductor experiences a magnetic force. This magnetic force is directly proportional to the amount of current flowing through the conductor.

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. h₁ T₁ k -L T. sur ho E
