A flat wall of fire clay, 50 cm thick and initially at 25 degree Celsius, has one of its
faces suddenly exposed to a hot gas at 950 degree Celsius. If the heat transfer
coefficient on the hot side is 7.5 W/m2 K and the other face of the wall is insulated
so that no heat passes out of that face, determine the time necessary to raise the
centre of the wall to 350 degree Celsius. For fire clay brick
Thermal conductivity = 1.12 W/m K
Thermal diffusivity = 5.16 x 10-7 m2/s
