An electrical current flows through a long bar, generating thermal energy at a rate uniform volumetric of q = 2 × 105 W/m 3. The bar is concentric with a hollow ceramic cylinder, creating an air-filled space between the two. If the external surface temperature cannot exceed 40 °C, what is the minimum speed that the ambient air should be blown? the neighborhood meets at 25 °C and the emissivity of the ceramic is 0.8. If the bar has an emissivity of 0.2, what is the bar surface temperature?
A dual-pane window in a house is composed of two parallel panes of glass, each with an area of 2.23 m². Each pane of glass is 3.10 mm thick and the space between the panes is 12.5 mm thick and is filled with argon. (a) Calculate the heat flow through the window if the indoor temperature is 18.3°C and the outdoor temperature is -20.6°C (this is about -5°F). (b) Determine the temperature on the inside of the pane (this is in the argon-dilled region) closest to the outside of the house.

A glass of a hot water has an initial temperature 80°C, placed in a room where the temperature is 30°C. After one minute the water temperature drops to 70°C. What will be the temperature after 3 minutes? At what time the water cools down to 40°C?
A double-pane glass window consists of two pieces of glass, each having athickness of 8 mm, with a thermal conductivity of k = 1.4 W⁄m ⋅ K . The twoglass panes are separated by an air gap of 10 mm, as shown in Figure 11.10 .Assuming the thermal conductivity of air to be k = 0.025 W⁄m ⋅ K , determinethe total R-value for this window. The total thermal resistance of the window is obtained by adding the resistance offered by each pane of glass and the air gap in the following manner:

3. According to Newton's Law of cooling', the rate at which the heat is lost by a heated body is proportional to the difference in temperature between the body and the surrounding medium (when the temperatutre difference is very small). If a thermometer is taken outdoor, where the temperature is 6°C, from a room which temperature is 25C, and the reading drops 15°C in one minute, how long after its removal from the room will the reading be 8°C? after 45 secs what is the thermometer reading?
