Consider a house whose walls are 12 ft high and 65 ft long. two of the walls of the house have no windows, while each of the other two walls has four windows made of 0.25-in-thick glass (k = 0.45 btu/h·ft·°f), 3 ft × 5 ft in size. the walls are certified to have an r-value of 19 (i. e., an l/k value of 19 h·ft2·°f/btu). disregarding any direct radiation gain or loss through the windows and taking the heat transfer coefficients at the inner and outer surfaces of the house to be 2 and 4 btu/h·ft2·°f, respectively, determine the ratio of the heat transfer through the walls with and without windows.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
