In the thermos shown in Fig. P8.43, the innermost compartment is separated from the middle container by a vacuum. There is a final shell around the thermos. This final shell is separated from the middle layer by a thin layer of air. The outside of the final shell comes in contact with room air. Heat transfer from the inner compartment to the next layer

The first layer immediately on the outer surface of the pipe is made of glass wool and the second one is constructed using plaster of Paris. The cylinder diameter is 10 cm and each insulating layer is 1 cm thick. The thermal conductivity of the glass wool is 0.04 W/m°C and that of the plaster is 0.06 W/m °C. The cylinder carries hot oil at a temperature of 92°C, and the atmospheric temperature outside is 15°C.
