You are designing a 3m x 3m floor with radiant heating. The floor has 12 parallel pex pipes (k = 40 W/mK) of L = 3m, OD = 25mm and ID = 20mm. Hot water (TInfintiy 1 = 90oC, h = 200 W/m2K) runs through the pipes continuously. The surface below the pipes is perfectly insulated. Above the pipes, there is a 3mm layer of bonding material (? = 12 W/mK) and a 9mm layer of tile (k = 2 W/mK). Above the tile, there is air (TInfinity 2 = 25oC, h = 20 W/m2K).
