1) The wall of a cold room is composed of three layer. The outer layer is brick 30 cm thick. The
middle layer is cork 20cm thick, the inside layer is cement 15 cm thick. The temperature of the
outside air is 25° C and on the inside air is -20° C. The film co-efficient for outside air and brick is
55.4 W/m2K.Film co-efficient for inside air and cement is 7 W/m2 K. Find heat flow rate. Take k
for brick = 2.5 W/mK ,k for cork = 0.05 W/mK ,k for cement = 0.28 W/mK.

4cm layer of gypsum plaster (k = 0.48 W/mK). What thickness of Loosely packed insulation(k =
0.065 W/mK) should be added to reduce the heat loss through, the wall by 80%

mm thick of insulation brick of conductivity, O.15 W/mK anti 200 mm thick red brick of
conductivity 0.85 W/mK. The inner and outer surface temperatures of wall are 850° C and 65° C
respectively. Calculate the temperatures at the contact surfaces.
4) A furnace wall made up of 7.5 cm of fire plate anti O.65 cm of mild steel plate. Inside surface

efficient for inner side is 60 W/m2K. The convective heat transfer co-efficient for outer side is 8
W/m2K. Calculate the heat lost per square meter area of the furnace wall and also find outside
surface temperature.

of 200° C, and outer surface temperature of 100° C. Determine heat flow through the cylinder
per meter length. Also determine the temperature of the point half way between the inner and
outer Surface. Take k = 1W/mK.

with a 25 mm layer of asbestos k = 0.88 kJ/hrm°C. If the inside wall temperature of the pipe is
maintained at 550°C and the outside of the insulator at 45° C. Calculate the heat loss per meter
length of the pipe.

the heat. rile tube surface temperature is 170° C ambient temperature is 20° C. Calculate the
heat loss per fin. Take h = 130 W/m2 C and K== 200 W/m oC for aluminium.

a uniform temperature of 225°C is suddenly immersed at time t=0 in a well stirred fluid
