Determine the heat flow between the roof and floor of a furnace with dimensions 4m x 3m x 4m when the roof is at a temperature of 1200 K and the floor is maintained at a temperature of 600 K. The other surfaces are non-absorbing and re-radiating. The surface emissivity of the hotter surface is 0.8 and that of the cooler surface is 0.6.

To supply heated air to a house, a high-efficiency gas furnace burns gaseous propane $\left(\mathrm{C}_{3} \mathrm{H}_{8}\right)$ with a combustion efficiency of 96 percent. Both the fuel and 140 percent theoretical air are supplied to the combustion chamber at $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and $100 \mathrm{kPa}$, and the combustion is complete. Because this is a high-efficiency furnace, the product gases are cooled to $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and $100 \mathrm{kPa}$ before leaving the furnace. To maintain the house at the desired temperature, a heat transfer rate of $31,650 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{h}$ is required from the furnace. Determine the volume of water condensed from the product gases per day.
