room temperatures, please help!
A room is initially at the outdoor temperature of 25C. Now a large fan that consumes 200W of electricity when running is turned on. The heat transfer rate between the room and the outdoor air is given as Q = UA(Ti - To) where U = 6 W/m^2^.oC is the overall heat transfer coefficient, A = 30 m^2 is the exposed surface area of the room, and Ti and To are the indoor and outdoor temperatures, respectively. Determine the indoor air temperature when steady operating conditions are established.
Q = UA(Ti - To)
