One insulated wall of a cold-storage compartment is 8 m long by 2.5 m high and consists of an outer steel plate 18 mm thick. An inner wood wall 22.5 mm thick, the steel and wood are 90 mm apart to form a cavity which is filled with cork. If the temperature drop across the extreme faces of the composite wall is 15°C. Calculate the heat transfer per hour through the wall and the temperature drop across the thickness of the cork. Take the coefficients of thermal conductivity for stee|, cork and wood as 45, 0.045, and 0.18 W/m-K respectively.

The fiberglass is faced internally by an insulating board 25 mm thick. The coefficient of thermal conductivity for the three are as follows: Brickwork. 1.5 W/m-K Fiberglass 0.04 W/m-K Insulating board 0.06 W/m-K The surface transfer coefficient of the inside wall is 3.1 W/m2-K while that of the outside wall is 2.5 W/m2-K. Take the internal ambient temperature as 10°C and the external temperature is 27°C. Determine the heat loss through such wall 6 m high and 10 m long.
