Step 1
Heat transfer occurs when there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions. In this case, we have a general geometry with an extended surface, so we can assume that there is a temperature difference between the surface and its surroundings. Show more…

What influence does the surface area have on the heat transfer?
Suman K.
Consider a steady-state heat conduction problem in a rectangular domain shown below. At y=H and y = -H surfaces, the temperature is specified as T0 °C. The surfaces at x = W and x= -W are in contact with fluid flow, with a convective coefficient of heat transfer h and fluid temperature of T∞. This material is isotropic with a thermal conductivity of 5 W/m·K. H = 20 cm W = 10 cm T0 = 100 °C h = 20 W/m^2 ·K T∞ = 25 °C Calculate – Total heat rate q & Total Heat loss?
