An external wall of a building has a U value of 0.50 W/m^2K. The indoor temperature is 21 degreesC and the outdoor temperature is -2.0 degreesC. If the combined surface heat transfer coefficient (radiation plus convection) of the outside wall is 12 W/m^2K, determine its surface temperature. answer = -1.04degreesC please show all workings

Question

An external wall of a building has a U value of 0.50 W/m^2K. The indoor temperature is
21 degreesC and the outdoor temperature is -2.0 degreesC.

If the combined surface heat transfer coefficient (radiation plus
convection) of the outside wall is 12 W/m^2K, determine its surface
temperature.

answer = -1.04degreesC

please show all workings
