In a pitcher 10 kg water is contained. Total surface area of pitcher walls is m² and its wall thickness is m. If surrounding temperature is 42°C, find the temperature of water in the pitcher when it attains a steady value. Given that in steady state 0.1 gm water gets evaporated per second from the outer surface of pitcher through its porous walls. The thermal conductivity of the walls of pitcher is 0.8 W/m°C and latent heat of vaporization of water is J/kg.

Answer:
27.80
Solution:

Heat needed for evaporation = W, supplied by conduction from the surroundings. , so water is at C.
