Question

Consider a 25-m-long thick-walled concrete duct (k 5
0.75 W/m·K) of square cross section. The outer dimensions
of the duct are 20 cm 3 20 cm, and the thickness of the duct
wall is 2 cm. If the inner and outer surfaces of the duct are at
100°C and 30°C, respectively, determine the rate of heat transfer
through the walls of the duct.
