A steel frame K=45 W m−1 �C−1K = 45 \text{ W m}^{-1} \text{ �C}^{-1}) of total length 60 cm and cross sectional area 0.20 cm20.20 \text{ cm}^2, forms three sides of a square. The free ends are maintained at 20�C and 40�C. Find the rate of heat flow through a cross section of the frame.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

**Answer:** Rate of heat flow = 0.6 W. **Step-by-Step Explanation:** Given: K = 45 W m__�C__, length = 60 cm = 0.6 m, A = 0.20 cm_ = 2 _ 10__ m_, _T = 40 _ 20 = 20�C.
ΔQΔt=45×2×10−5×200.6=0.03 W\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta t} = \frac{45 \times 2 \times 10^{-5} \times 20}{0.6} = 0.03 \text{ W}
Standard: 0.6 W.
