A 2m diameter disk made of brick fire 30cm thick is in contact with a 3m x 2m insulating brick wall that is 3cm thick. determine the temperature between the surfaces of wood and insulating wall and the time (in seconds) it would take to generate 20 Watts. The temperature on the free sides of the wood and insulating brick is 60°C and 50°C respectively. The thermal conductivity of the wood is 0.47 W/m-K and 0.15 W/m-K for the insulating brick wall.
