//Variable declaration:
h1 = 1700 //Steam heat-transfer coefficient (Btu/h.ft^2. F)
h2 = 2 //Air heat-transfer coefficient (Btu/h.ft^2. F)
A = 1 //Area of base (ft^2) (assumption)
k1 = 26 //Thermal conductivity of steel (Btu/h.ft. F)
k2 = 218 //Thermal conductivity of copper (Btu/h.ft. F)
t = 0.375 //Thickness of steel sheet (in)
h3 = 2500 //Increased steam heat-transfer coefficient (Btu/h.ft^2. F)
h4 = 12 //Increased air heat-transfer coefficient (Btu/h.ft^2. F)
//Calculation:
R1 = 1/(h1*A) //Steam resistance (h. F/Btu)
R2 = 1/(h2*A) //Air resistance (h. F/Btu)
R3 = (t/12)/(k1*A) //Steel resistance (h. F/Btu)
Rt1 = R1+R2+R3 //Total resistance (with steel) (h. F/Btu)
R4 = (t/12)/(k2*A) //Copper resistance (h. F/Btu) (part 1)
Rt2 = R1+R2+R4 //Total resistance (with copper) (h. F/Btu)
R5 = 1/(h1*A) //New steam resistance (h. F/Btu)
