No heat losses exist in this task.
Hampus is concerned about the expensive electricity price. Stingy as he is, he tells his daughter that she is not allowed to bathe in the bathtub. Assume that the water temperature entering the house is 5.0°C. For the bath to be pleasant, the bath water must be 38°C.
a) How much energy is needed to heat the water to 38°C in a bathtub of size 0.150 m³?
b) How long does it take for the water heater to heat 0.150 m³ of water from 5.0°C to 38°C if it has an output of 1.0kW and an efficiency of n = 0.80 ?
c) How much does a bath cost if the electricity price for 1 kWh is $5?
Hampu's daughter does not care about the electricity price, so she pours a bath when Hampu is not at home. Unfortunately, the bath water is 45°C, so she adds cold water until the water is 38°C.
d) How much 5°C cold water does she need to fill in the bathtub for the mixture to become 38°C?

- You are insulating a metal pipe carrying a hot fluid. The outside Diameter of the pipe is 3.5 cm, and the pipe has a length of 7.7 meters. Due to the fluid inside the pipe, the outside surface of the metal fluid pipe is kept at a constant temperature of 85.0°C. The metal pipe is inserted inside of a thin-wall circular tube, which has an inside diameter of 11.2 cm (ignore the resistance of the thin-wall circular tube). The space between the outside of the hot metal pipe and the inside of the thin-wall circular tube is filled with foam insulation, k = 0.036 W/m-K. The outside of the thin-walled circular tube is kept at a constant temperature of 28.0°C. Due to a manufacturing error, the metal pipe was not centered inside the thin-wall tube when the foam insulation was added, but was instead installed with an eccentricity of 2.0 cm (i.e. the center of the metal pipe is 2.0 cm distance from the center of the thin-walled circular tube).
