Tutorial 3 Heat Transfer Question 3

The document describes a 4m high and 6m wide wall made of alternating horizontal bricks and plaster layers with rigid foam insulation on the inner side. The wall has indoor and outdoor temperatures of 22C and -4C respectively, with known convection coefficients and material thermal conductivities. The question asks to determine the rate of heat transfer through the wall assuming one-dimensional heat transfer and disregarding radiation heat transfer.

3-54 A 4-m-high and 6 m wide wall consists of a long l5-cm X 25-cm cross section of

horizontal bricks (k = 0.72 W/m-K) separated by 3-cm-thick plaster layers (k = 0.22 W/m-K).
There are also 2-cm-thick plaster layers on each side of the wall, and a 2-cm-thick rigid foam
(k = 0.026 W/m-K) on the inner side of the wall. The indoor and the outdoor temperatures are
22C and -4C, and the convection heat transfer coefficients on the inner and the outer sides
are h1 = l0 W/m2-K and h2 = 20 W/m2-K, respectively. Assuming one-dimensional heat
transfer and disregarding radiation, determine the rate of heat transfer through the wall.
