A wall of a furnace is made of 120 mm silica brick layer (k= 1.7W/m. K) covered with a layer of 240mm magnesite brick layer (k= 1.2W/m. K). The temperatures of the inside surface of silica brick and outside surface of magnesite brick are 725 C and 110 C respectively. Calculate the rate of heat transfer(per unit area) and the interface temperature.
