A two-layer 24 m² plane wall consists of a 250 mm thick inner concrete layer with thermal conductivity k, of 2 W/m K and a 80 mm thick outer insulation with k of 0.04 W/m K. The temperatures of wall inner and outer surfaces are t, = 28°C and tą = -9°C. Calculate (i) the rate of heat transfer and (ii) the temperature t, of the wall intermediate surface.

A two-layer 24 m² plane wall consists of a 250 mm thick inner concrete
layer with thermal conductivity k, of 2 W/m K and a 80 mm thick outer
insulation with k, of 0.04 W/m K. The temperatures of wall inner and outer
surfaces are t, = 28°C and t3 =-9°C. Calculate (i) the rate of heat transfer
and (ii) the temperature t, of the wall intermediate surface.
