A year 2 chemical engineering student is looking to purchase a new water heated radiator to heat up a room which has a rectangular floor space 2.0 m by 3.0m, a floor to ceiling height of 2.5 m, and one window with a surface area of 2.5 m. The properties of air and water can be found in Table 1. Table 1: Fluid properties Properties Specific heat capacity of water Specific heat capacity of air Density of air Density of water a) The overall heat transfer coefficient to describe the heat loss for each of the surfaces in the room is listed in Table 2. If the temperature outside the room (ceiling, floor, walls) can be assumed to be 5 C, show that the overall heat loss as a function of the room temperature (Tr) is: los 77.85 (Tr-5) Surface Ceiling Floor Walls Window -1 4200 J kg K 1000 J kg K 1.22 kg m- 1000 kg m- Table 2: Overall heat transfer coefficient to describe the heat loss through different surfaces in the room..
