A 4-m-high and 6-m-wide wall consists of a long 18-cm x 30-cm cross section of horizontal bricks (k = 0.72 W/mK) separated by 3-cm-thick plaster layers (k=0.22 W/mK). There are also 2-cm-thick plaster layers on each side of the wall, and a 2-cm-thick rigid foam (k=0.026 W/mK) on the inner side of the wall. The indoor and outdoor temperatures are 22°C and -4°C, and the convection heat transfer coefficients on the inner and the outer sides are h1= 10 W/m2K and h2= 20 W/m2K, respectively.Assuming one-dimensional heat transfer and disregarding radiation, determine the rate of heat transfer through the wall.

Conduction and Convection

When energy travels from one object to another it is said to have undergone heat transfer. Heat transfer is nothing but the transfer of thermal energy or internal energy from one thing to another, like e.g., when a vessel with water, kept on top of a burner, heats up because of the flame underneath it.
