A Multi-layer wall of a building is shown in the following figure. The thermal conductivity of A, B, C, D, and E are: 30, 5, 1.67, 10.5, 6 W/m k, respectively. Assume one dimentional heat transfer. The area of A = D = E =4 m?, and B = C = 2 m2. The thickness of each layer is 10 cm. The temperature of surface A is 25 °C, and the temperature of surface E is 38 °C. Calculate the heat transfer rate through the wall.
