Part $1($estimated time $-2$ classes$)$

We want to keep the average indoor air habitable in winter, under reasonable worst case

conditions. Under such circumstances, how much wood will need to be burned to keep

the house in the range $70-75F($note the wood consumption will be a function of the

desired indoor temperature$).$ Assume a reasonable range of ventilation $($air exchange$)$

rates. Set this up as a table.
