On a cold winter day, the rate of heat transfer from the air in a certain room is 5500 Btu/hr. The room is heated by a heating system, and the warm air is circulated by a fan which develops 0.75 hp. What is the required rate of heat transfer in kW, from the heating system in order to maintain constant room conditions?
