Question: A long, hollow cylinder is constructed from a material whose thermal conductivity is a function of temperature according to k = 0.060 + 0.00060 T,

A long, hollow cylinder is constructed from a material whose thermal conductivity is a function of temperature according to k = 0.060 + 0.00060 T, where T is in ?F and k is in Btu/h ?F. The inner and outer radii of the cylinder are 5 and 10 in., respectively. Under steady-state conditions, the temperature at the interior surface of the cylinder is 800?F and the temperature at the exterior surface is 200?F.(a) Calculate the rate of heat transfer per foot length, taking into account the variation in thermal conductivity with temperature.(b) If the heat transfer coefficient on the exterior surface of the cylinder is 3 Btu/(h ft2 ?F), calculate the temperature of the air on the outside of the cylinder.GIVENA long hollow cylinderThermal conductivity (k) = 0.060 + 0.00060 T [T in ?F, k in Btu/(h ft ?F)]Inner radius (ri) = 5 in.Outer radius (ro) = 10 in.Interior surface temperature (Twi) = 800?FExterior surface temperature (Two) = 200?FExterior heat transfer coefficient ( ho ) = 3 Btu/(h ft2 ?F)Steady-state conditionsASSUMPTIONSSteady state heat transferConduction occurs in the radial directiononly

T. Tw= 800 F Two- 200 F

T. Tw= 800 F Two- 200 F
