A large 35 mm thick slab of material has surface temperatures of 318.8 degrees K and 303.2 degrees K, and heat flux through the material of 35.1 W/m^2. Calculate the thermal conductivity of the slab.
Flux is given by:
Flux = k*dT/d where :
k = thermal conductivity
dT = temperature difference
d = thickness
Rearranging in terms of k:
k = flux*d/(dT)
= (35.1)(0.035m)/(318.8-303.2)
= 0.07875 W/(mK)

-A wall 20 cm thick is to be constructed from material that has an average thermal conductivity of 2 W/m C. The wall is to be insulated with 5cm material having an average thermal conductivity of 0.5W/m C. Assuming that the inner and outer surface temperatures of the insulated wall are 200 and 20°C, calculate the heat transfer per unit area and the intermediate Temperature between the insulation and the wall.
A cork slab 10 cm thick has one face at -12 degrees C and the other face at 21 degrees C. If the mean thermal conductivity of the cork in this temperature range is 0.042 J/s m degree C, what is the rate of heat transfer through 1 m^2 of wall?
A dormitory at a large university, built 50 years ago, has exterior walls constructed of L, = 25-mm-thick sheathing with a thermal conductivity of k, = 0.1 W/m K. To reduce heat losses in the winter, the university decides to encapsulate the entire dormitory by applying an L = 25-mm-thick layer of extruded insulation characterized by kı = 0.029 W/m K to the exterior of the original sheathing. The extruded insulation is, in turn, covered with an L = 5-mm-thick...
