A cold storage room is constructed of an inner layer of 12.7mm of pine, a middle inner of 101.6mm of cork board, and an outer layer of 76.2mm of concrete. The wall surface temperature is 255.4 K inside the cold room and 297.1 k at the outside surface of the concrete. Thermal conductivity of pine is 0.151; corkboard 0.0433; concrete 0.762W/m-K. Calculate the heat loss in W for 1m^2 surface area.
The heat conducts through the shape below. The temperature of the right face is 93 °C, while the left face is at 23 °C. If the top and bottom faces are completely insulated, and the thermal conductivity of the material decreases with decreasing temperature.
* Assume that the thermal conductivity is 100 at 23, decreased to 10 at 93.
A) Sketch the temperature profile inside the plate.
B) If both sides of the plate in the above problem is exposed to air: Left side (h = 20 W/m2K, TL = 20 °C) and right side (h = 90 W/m2K). Calculate the temperature of the air on the right side.
