A pipe has an outer diameter of 1.315 in. and an inner diameter of 1.049 in. The thermal conductivity of the pipe material is 20 Btu/h-ft-°F. The inner convective heat transfer coefficient between the fluid within the pipe and the inner pipe walls is 150 Btu/h-ft2-°F. The outer convective heat transfer coefficient between the outer pipe and the ambient air is 50 Btu/h-ft2-°F. What is the overall heat transfer coefficient per length of pipe?

There are 15 workers in a large, air-conditioned warehouse, which houses fruits and vegetables. The workers drive (2) 10 HP electric golf carts throughout the warehouse. The motor has an efficiency of 80% and the golf carts only used 10% of the time (assume a 0.1 usage factor). In addition, the full capacity of the motor is not used. Assume an 80% load factor. Measured in Btu/hr, what is the heat load from the golf carts alone?

An existing clear class window with an inefficient film and a shading coefficient of 0.9 is being replaced by a new low-e glass with a shading coefficient of 0.6 and a transmissivity of 0.75. What will be the percent reduction in solar heat gain by switching to the newer glass? (Assume an area of 18 square feet and an SCL of 40 F.)
