-The wall composed of a three oven has materials, two of which withthermal conductivity, kA = 20 W / (m · K) and kC = 50 W / (m · K), and thickness LA = 0.30 m and LC = 0.15 m tagged. The third material, B, which is found among the materials A and C, has a known thickness LB = 0.15 m, but its thermal conductivity kB is unknown. Under steady-state operating conditions, measurements reveala temperature at the outer surface of the oven of Ts, e = 20 °C, a temperature at inner surface of Ts, i = 600 °C and an air temperature inside the oven of T∞ = 800 ° C. The internal convective coefficient h is known, being equal to 25 W/(m²K). What is the value of kB?
