Question

A typical exterior frame wall (made up of 60 mm × 120 mm studs) of a house
contains the materials as shown. For most residential buildings, the inside room temperature is kept around 21° C. Assuming an outside temperature of −6° C and an exposed area of 16 m2 , we are interested in determining the heat loss through the wall.
