Find the rate of heat leakage for a spherical tank 2 m inside diameter and 12 mm thick with thermal conductivity of the material 45 W/m°C, containing liquid oxygen at -183°C. The tank is covered with 50 mm thick insulation having thermal conductivity 0.083 W/m°C. The outer surface is exposed to air at 27°C with convective heat transfer coefficient h = 20 W/m²°C.
