Question
A furnace of 70- by 60- by 90-cm inside dimensions is constructed of a material having a
thermal conductivity of 1.05 kJ/kg °C. The wall thickness is 15 cm. The inner and outer
surface temperatures are 500 and 100 °C, respectively. Calculate the heat loss through the
furnace wall.

The walls are insulated on the outside with a layer of foam 60 mm thick. Cladding with a thickness of 15 mm protects the foam on the outside from the elements. The composite wall surface temperatures are –3 °C on the inside and 18 °C on the outside of the room respectively. The thermal conductivities of concrete, foam and cladding are 0.75, 0.35 and 0.5 W/m K respectively. a) Assuming perfect thermal contact between the layers of the composite walls, draw the typical temperature distribution across the layers and determine the heat energy gained per hour through all 4 walls of the room with a total surface area of 20 m2 .
