A food cold storage room is to be constructed of an inner layer of 19.1 mm of pine wood, a middle layer of cork board, and an outer layer of 50.8 mm of concrete. The inside wall surface temperature is -17.8°C and the outside surface temperature is 29.4 °C at the outer concrete surface. The mean conductivities are for pine, 0.151; cork, 0.0433; and concrete, 0.762 W/m·K. The total inside surface area of the room to use in the calculation is approximately 39 m2 (neglecting corner and end effects). What thickness of cork board is needed to keep the heat loss to 586 W?

- An experiment was conducted to determine surface convective heat transfer coefficient for peas being frozen in an air-blast freezer. For this purpose, a metal analog of peas was used. The analog was a solid copper ball with a diameter of 1 cm. A small hole was drilled to the center of the copper ball, and a thermocouple junction was located at the center using a high-conductivity epoxy. The density of copper is 8954 kg/m³, and its specific heat is 3830 J/(kg K). The copper ball (at a uniform initial temperature of 10 °C) was hung in the path of air flow (at -40 °C) and the center temperature indicated by the thermocouple was recorded.
