    The document describes two problems involving heat transfer through multilayered walls. The first problem involves calculating the required thickness of insulation around a furnace wall to limit heat loss to 1830 W/m^2. The second problem involves calculating the heat loss through a double-paned window composed of two glass panels separated by an air gap.

    Online Task 3 – Conduction in Hollow Sphere and Multilayered Wall (Series)

    1. Insulation of a Furnace. A wall of furnace 0.244 m thick is constructed of material having a thermal
    conductivity of 1.30 W/m.K. The wall will be insulated on the outside with material having an
    average k of 0.346 W/m.K, so the heat loss from the furnace will be equal to or less than 1830
    W/m2. The inner surface temperature is 1588K and the outer 299K. Calculate the thickness of
    insulation required.
    Answer: 0.179 m

    2. Heat loss through Thermopane Double Window. A double window called thermopane is one n
    which two layers of glass are used separately by a layer of dry stagnant air. In given window, each
    of the glass layers is 6.35 mm thick separated by a 6.35 mm space of stagnant air. The thermal
    conductivity of the glass is 0.869 W/m.K and that of air is 0.026 over the temperature range used.
    For a temperature drop of 27.8 K over the system, calculate the heat loss for a window 0.914 m
    x 1.83 m. (Note: This calculation neglects the effect of the convective coefficient on the outside
    surface of one side of the window, the convectoive coefficient on the outside surface, and the
    convection inside the window)
    Answer: 179.7 W
