1. Solve the following problem:
a. Calculate the rate of heat loss through the vertical walls of a boiler furnace of size 4 m
by 3 m by 3 m high. The walls are constructed from an inner fire brick wall 25 cm thick
of thermal conductivity 0.4 W/mK, a layer of ceramic blanket insulation of thermal
conductivity 0.2 W/mk and 8 cm thick, and a steel protective layer of thermal
conductivity 55 W/mK and 2 mm thick. The inside temperature of the fire brick layer
was measured at 600°C and the temperature of the outside of the insulation 60° C.
