3. A commercial cubical refrigerator, 3 m on a side, has a composite wall consisting of an exterior sheet of 6.35-mm-thick plain carbon steel, an intermediate layer of 125-mm-thick cork insulation, and an inner sheet of 6.35-mm thick aluminum alloy (2024). Adhesive interfaces between the insulation and the metallic sheets are characterized by a thermal contact resistance of R=2.5 x 104 m²-K/W. What is the steady-state cooling load that must be maintained by the refrigerator when the outer and inner surfaces of all six sides are 25°C and -5°C, respectively?
