During the winter, the inside of an average house is maintained at 20 °C, while the outside temperature is 0 °C. Assuming that the only mechanism of heat transfer is conduction, the walls are 10 cm thick and the heatconductivity of the walls is 0.5 W/(Km). a) Calculate the heat flux from the room to the surroundings in W/m2. b) To reduce the heat loss through the walls, the material should be changed to an insulator material. Thenew overall conductivity will be 0.1 W/(Km); the thickness of the walls is maintained. Calculate the reductionof the heat flux through the walls compared to the initial case.
a wall consist of 3.0 cm of exterior wood and 2.0 cm of interior wood spearated by a 15cm layer of polystyrene foam. if the interior is kept at 19 Celsius degree, calculate the outside temperature for which the heat loss through the is 10 W/m2
Imagine a person standing naked in a room at 19.1°C. The walls are well insulated, so they also are at 19.1°C. The person’s surface area is 2.20 m2, and his basal metabolic rate is 2167 kcal/day. His emissivity is 0.970.
If the person’s skin temperature were 38.2°C (the same as the internal body temperature), at what net rate would heat be lost through radiation? (Ignore losses by conduction and convection.)

- The rate of heat conduction out of a window on a winter day is rapid enough to chill the air next to it. To see just how rapidly the windows transfer heat by conduction, calculate the rate of conduction in watts through a 3.00-m2 window that is 0.634 cm thick (1/4 in.) if the temperatures of the inner and outer surfaces are 5.00 °C and −10.0 °C , respectively. (This rapid rate will not be maintained—the inner surface will cool, even to the point of frost formation.)arrow_forwardOne easy way to reduce heating (and cooling) costs is to add extra insulation in the attic of a house. Suppose a single-story cubical house already had 15 cm of fiberglass insulation in the attic and in all the exterior surfaces. If you added an extra 8.0 cm of fiberglass to the attic, by what percentage would the heating cost of the house drop? Take the house to have dimensions 10 m by 15 m by 3.0m.
