Cladding with a thickness of 15 mm protects the foam on the outside from the elements. The composite wall surface temperatures are -3 °C on the inside and 18 °C on the outside of the room respectively. The thermal conductivities of concrete, foam and cladding are 0.75, 0.35 and 0.5 W/m K respectively. a) Assuming perfect thermal contact between the layers of the composite walls, draw the typical temperature distribution across the layers and determine the heat energy gained per hour through all 4 walls of the room with a total surface area of 20 m². What does this heat energy represent in terms of the refrigeration system of the cold room?
