 In a process room a long 2 cm diameter cylindrical molten

In a process room a long 2 cm diameter cylindrical molten core, koore-5 W/m-K, of an arc reactor generates =64E-I MW/m'. The temperature of the outer core is, T;=1550 K and is surrounded by a ceramic sheath, ksh9 E-1 W/m-K, Esh=0.5. The cable and sheath are suspended by thin highly insulating bands connected to two surface- coated thin rectangular supports that run along the inside of a steel pipe, kpipe=0.25 W/m-K, with dimensions as shown in the Figure. The supports are attached to the pipe such that they are effectively thermally insulated from both the pipe and the bands. The inside of the steel pipe has been vacuumed, and the pipe's external surface is exposed to the surroundings and convectively at equilibrium with T... Clearly show your work, justifications and assumptions made.
