Question

A wall of length "L" m and height "H" m is made from a thick bricklayer of 29 cm with thermal conductivity of  0.5 W/mK is subjected to heat transfer due to the outside temperature as 43 oC and inside temperature 28 oC.  If the energy loss is 11427 kJ in 9 hours. 

Determine the Heat transfer rate, Surface Area and Length and Height of the wall, if L = 1.5 H.

Solution:

i) Heat Transfer Rate (in Joule/Sec) = 

ii) Surface Area of the Wall (in m2) = 

iii) Height of the Wall (H in m) = 

iv) Length of the Wall (L in m) =
