A homeowner is unhappy with her heating costs. One wall of her house is 4 meters tall and 8 meters wide and has no windows, and it is made of brick and mortar with a thermal conductivity of 1.0 W m K . It is 40 cm thick. The house is heated to a temperature of 20 ◦C inside. (a) What is the rate of heat loss through the wall on a day when it is 0◦C outside? (b) A layer of rock mineral wool, which has a thermal conductivity of 0.032 W m K is to be installed on the interior surface of the brick wall. How thick should the layer be to lower the rate of heat transfer through this wall to half its original value? (c) If the rock mineral wool is instead installed on the outer surface, is the thickness required the same?
