A wall is made up of two layers, LI (outer layer) and L2 (inner layer). Both layers are 5 in thick. The outer layer has a thermal conductivity of 1 BTU/ft-h-°F while the thermal conductivity of the inner layer is 0.1 BTU/ff-h-OF. It is found out that LI has a temperature aof 500 °F while that of L2 is 1500 °F. Determine the total rate of heat transfer (in BTU/h-ff?).

Question
A wall is made up of two layers, LI (outer layer) and L2 (inner layer). Both layers
are 5 in thick. The outer layer has a thermal conductivity of 1 BTU/ft-h-°F while the
thermal conductivity of the inner layer is 0.1 BTU/ff-h-OF. It is found out that LI has
a temperature aof 500 °F while that of L2 is 1500 °F. Determine the total rate of heat
transfer (in BTU/h-ff?).
