10-2.Transmission of Heat
medium

A copper rod $2\,m$ long has a circular cross-section of radius $1\, cm$. One end is kept  at $100^o\,C$ and the other at $0^o\,C$ and the surface is covered by nonconducting material to check the heat losses through the surface. The thermal  resistance of the bar in degree kelvin per watt is (Take thermal conductivity $K = 401\, W/m-K$ of copper):-

A

$12.9$

B

$13.9$

C

$14.9$

D

$15.9$

Solution

Thermal resistance,

$\mathrm{R}=\frac{l}{\mathrm{KA}}=\frac{l}{\mathrm{K}\left(\pi \mathrm{r}^{2}\right)}$

$=\frac{2}{401 \times 3.14 \times\left(10^{-4}\right)}=15.9$ kelvin $/$ watt
