In the walls of a warehouse, the inner plaster thickness is 2 cm and the heat conduction coefficient is 0.60 W / moC, the curtain concrete thickness is 10 cm, the heat conduction coefficient is 1.3 W / moC, the outer plaster is 2.5 cm and the heat conduction coefficient is 1.2 W. It is known to be / moC. Inner surface heat transfer coefficient is 8 W / m2oC and outer surface heat transfer coefficient is 21 W / m2oC. Indoor temperature, outdoor temperature and relative humidity of indoor environment are given in the table. How much of the insulation material with thermal conductivity coefficient should be used between the gas concrete and the outer plaster in order to prevent condensation on the inner wall of this warehouse. The indoor and outdoor ambient temperatures of the warehouse and the relative humidity of the storage environment are given in the table. K insulation: 0.032 T inner: 14 T outside: -15 Relative humidity: 60
