The wall of a box furnace is made of a composite material. Layer A is directly in contact with the combustion gases inside the furnace and it has a thickness of 0.023 m, a thermal conductivity of 132 W/m-K, and a cross-sectional area of 0.42 m2. On the other hand, Layer C corresponds to the outermost layer that is in direct contact with the ambient air. It has a thickness of 0.036 m, a thermal conductivity of 2 W/m-K, and has the same cross-sectional area as Layer A. In between Layer A and Layer C are two parallel layers: LayerB and Layer D. Layer B has the same cross-sectional area as Layer D. The thickness of Layer B and Layer D is 0.066 m. Layer B has a thermal conductivity of 13 W/m-K; while, Layer D has a thermal conductivity of 23 W/m-K. The combustion gases inside the furnace has a temperature of 373 ; while, the ambient air has a temperature of 30 . Finally, the convection heat transfer coefficients at the inside and outside of the wall are 111 W/m2-K and 22 W/m2-K respectively. Find the temperature at the outside surface of the wall in .
