Fig. 4 illustrates an insulating wall of three homogeneous layers with conductivities k1, k2, and k3 in
intimate contact. Under steady state conditions, both right and left surfaces are exposed to a temperature
in a steady state condition at ambient temperatures of T and T , respectively, while ß, and BLare the
film coefficients respectively. Assume that there is no internal heat generation and that the heat flow is
one-dimensional (dT/dy = 0). For the illustrated ambient temperature in Fig. 4, determine the
temperature's distribution at each layer.

The wall of the furnace is 30.48 mm thick and is insulated from outside. Thermal conductivity of the wall material is 0.1 W/m K and the insulation material is 0.01 W/m K. The furnace operates at 650 0C and the ambient temperature is 30 0 Allowable temperature on the outer side of the insulation is 1000C. Determine the overall heat transfer by conduction per unit area occurring across a furnace wall made from clay.
If the air side heat transfer coefficient is 0.4 W/m2 K, calculate the minimum insulation thickness requirement.
Question 2:
The composite wall of an oven consists of three materials, two of which are of known thermal conductivity, kA 20 W/m K and kC50 W/m K, and known thickness, LA 0.30 m and LC 0.15 m. The third material, B, which is sandwiched between materials A and C, is of known thickness, LB 0.15 m, but unknown thermal conductivity kB. Under steady-state operating conditions, measurements reveal an outer surface temperature of Ts,o 20°C, an inner surface temperature of Ts,i 600°C, and an oven air temperature of T 800°C. The inside convection coefficient h is known to be 25 W/m2 K. What is the value of kB?
