The wall of a box furnace is made of a composite material. Layer A is directly in contact with the combustion gases inside the furnace and it has a
thickness of 0.026 m, a thermal conductivity of 138 W/m-K, and a cross-sectional area of 0.27 m². On the other hand, Layer C corresponds to the
outermost layer that is in direct contact with the ambient air. It has a thickness of 0.045 m, a thermal conductivity of 3 W/m-K, and has the same
cross-sectional area as Layer A. In between Layer A and Layer C are two parallel layers: Layer B and Layer D. Layer B has the same cross-
sectional area as Layer D. The thickness of Layer B and Layer D is 0.063 m. Layer B has a thermal conductivity of 10 W/m-K; while, Layer D has a
thermal conductivity of 20 W/m-K. The combustion gases inside the furnace has a temperature of 360 °C; while, the ambient air has a

temperature of 32 °C. Finally, the convection heat transfer coefficients at the inside and outside of the wall are 148
respectively. Find the total rate of heat transfer through the wall in W.
