Problem 10-63 A 5-m-wide, 4-m-high, and 40-m-long kiin used to cure concrete pipes is made of 20-cm-thick concrete walls and ceiling (k = 0.9 W/m °C). The kiln is maintained at 40°C by injecting hot steam into it. The two ends of the kiln (4 m x 5 m in size) are made of 3-mm-thick sheet metal covered with 2-cm-thick styrofoam (k = 0.033 W/m °C). h,__ = 3000 W/m? °C and Danes 25 W/m?°C. Determine the rate of heat loss from the kiln when the ambient air is at 4°C. Assume the kiln is sitting on the floor with negli- gible heat transfer through the floor.
