1 ) I want to know weather it looses temp ? if yes how much time do it take to loose at least ( 5degree) .
2 ) Does nitrogen (liquid) looses its coldness through time ?

Liquid nitrogen boils at -192 C under 1 atmosphere pressure.

To have liquid nitrogen at 60 C, it has to be in under substantial pressure. I have not done the calculation but I suspect we are talking of 20 - 50 atmospheres so the walls of the pressure vessel need be very thick and very strong - and again I have not done the calculation for the container either.

With the container and the liquid nitrogen inside it under high pressure inside a 60 degree C chamber all the contents remain at 60 degrees C. You need to maintain the chamber temperature at 60 C. Because room temperature is 20 C, your chamber would be insulated and heat needs to be added to off set the heat loss from the chamber to the room. This is because the chamber is hotter than the room and there are heat losses through insulation regardless of whether the chamber had something in it or the chamber was empty.

If you do not heat the chamber, it will ultimately cool to room temperature. The rate of cooling is dependant upon the insulation quality (or the heat loss through the insulation). The better the insulation quality, the longer it will take to drop in temperature but we cannot predict this without more info about the chamber, the insulation, and the room temperature. Contents inside the chamber have little effect on the rate of loss (if the pressure vessel had the liquid nitrogen in it or if it was empty has little effect in this case)

Liquid Nitrogen under this high pressure is at the surrounding temperature. It is not cold and cannot loose coldness.

Now if you were to reduce pressure, which is not what you asked, some nitrogen would convert to the gas state and this cools the vessel (latent heat of vaporization is why).

I suggest you review heat capacities and latent heats of fusion, sublimation and vaporization to learn more.

To maintain nitrogen in liquid form at 60deg C the pressure inside the vessel has to be very high. Since the atmospheric temperature will be lower there will be a tendency for the liquid to loose temperature but then as it looses temperature the pressure inside the vessel will increase by Boyl,s law. Ultimately a equilibrium pressure will be achieved so that the temperature loss is made up with the new increased pressure.

Olivia, lot of stable recommendations on the drapes and so forth. in case you do have homestead windows that get midday day solar you do pick to tug the colours despite if it relatively is not actual windy outdoors. Direct solar warms carpets and couches and so forth. It keeps a sprint radiant warmth for later interior the day. close the colours whilst the solar starts getting low. a hearth place is an extremely IN-effective heater. different than those outfitted with those blowers, a hearth do no longer hardly do something. inspite of the blowers, they're exceptionally costly to function. must confirm they're sparkling, and then have lots of wood. pronounced you probably did no longer pick to lay our a fortune. this could be somewhat costly to place in. there is those those that do those retrofits, the place they set up an iron range, and run the vent up via the previous hearth. You loose some residing area, reason the range is interior some ft. additionally ought to have a steel protector for the floor, and an fence to maintain previous human beings, young ones and drunks faraway from the range. you will get warmth from each and each piece of wood, and it won't only bypass up the chimney. A range radiates warmth all around
