What is the thermal resistance associated with a wall that is 2.5 m high by 6.5 m wide (having 10 studs, each 2.5 m high)? Assume surfaces normal to the x-
direction are isothermal.
A composite wall is made up of an external thickness of brickwork 110 mm thick insidewhich is a layer of fiberglass 75 mm thick. The fiberglass is faced internally by an insulatingboard 25 mm thick. The coefficient of thermal conductivity for the three are as follows:
Brickwork 1.5 W/m-KFiberglass 0.04 W/m-KInsulating board 0.06 W/m-KThe surface transfer coefficients of the inside wall is 3.1 W/m2
