A basement for a certain home is 3.9 m × 4.8 m with a ceiling height of 2.9 m. The walls are made up of cement concrete having a thickness of 9.8 cm. In the winter the convection coefficient on the inside is 10 W/m2 · ◦C and the soil on the outside has thermal conductivity, k =1.7 W/m·◦C.
(i) Perform a critical analysis of the above stated problem and estimate the overall heat transfer coefficient U defined by the equation, qloss = UA inside (Tinside −Tsoil).
(ii) Evaluate the heat loss when inside temperature, Tinside = 25 ◦C and soil temperature, Tsoil = 14 ◦C

In this problem you will estimate the heat lost by a typical house, assuming that the temperature inside is T(in) = 20 degrees celcius and the temperature outside is T(out) = 0 degrees celcius
In this problem you will estimate the heat lost by a typical house, assuming that the temperature inside is T(in) = 20 degrees celcius and the temperature outside is T(out) = 0 degrees celcius. The walls have fiberglass insulation, which dominates the heat conduction properties of the wall So we can consider the wall to have a thermal conductivity of k(wall) = 0.048 W/m/K . We will take the thickness of the walls and ceiling to be L(wall) = 12...
