Heat is being transferred by convection from water at $${48^ \circ }C$$ to a glass plate whose surface that is exposed to the water is at $${40^0}C.$$ The thermal conductivity of water is $$0.6$$ $$W/mK$$ and the thermal conductivity of glass is $$1.2$$ $$W/mK.$$ The spatial gradient of temp in the water at the water glass interface is
$$dT/dy = 1 \times {10^4}\,\,K/m...$$

The value of the temperature gradient in the glass at the water-glass interface in $$K/m$$ is

It is proposed to coat a $$1mm$$ diameter wire with enamel paint $$\left( {k\,\,\,\, = 0.1W/m} \right.$$ - $$\left. K \right)$$ to increase heat transfer with air. If the air side heat transfer co-efficiency is $$100$$ $$W/{m^2}K,$$ the optimum thickness of enamel paint should be

The temp variation under steady heat conduction across a composite slab of two materials with thermal conductivies $${K_1}$$ and $${K_2}$$ is shown in fig. then, which one of the following statements holds?

For a current carrying wire of $$20$$ $$mm$$ diameter and having $$k=0.5W/mK$$ is exposed to air $$\left( {h = 20W/{m^2}K} \right),$$ maximum heat dissiption occurs when thickness of insulation is
