$A$ brass boiler has a base area of $0.15\; m^{2}$ and thickness $1.0\; cm$. It boils water at the rate of $6.0\; kg/min$ when placed on a gas stove. Estimate the temperature (in $^oC$) of the part of the flame in contact with the boiler. Thermal conductivity of brass $= 109\; J s^{-1} m^{-1} K^{-1}$; Heat of vaporisation of water $= 2256 \times 10^{3}\; J kg^{-1}$.
