12.6-1. Insulation Needed for Food Cold Storage Room. A food cold storage room is to be
constructed of an inner layer of 19.1 mm of pine, a middle layer of cork board, and
an outer layer of 50.8 mm of concrete. The inside wall surface temperature is -178°C
and the outside surface temperature is 29.4°C at the outer concrete surface. The
mean conductivities are for pine, 0.151; cork, 0.0433; and concrete, 0.762 W/m K.
The total inside surface area of the room to use in the calculation is approximately
39 m2 (neglecting corner and end effects). What thickness of cork board is needed to
