Question : Calculate the heating time when four such boards are stacked together.

Note 1: Don’t use Heissler charts to answer this question.

Note3: please explain clearly and step by step

Heat sterilization of lumber, timbers, and pallets is used to kill insects to
prevent their transfer between countries in international trade. This is analogous to
food sterilization by heat. A typical requirement here is that the slowest heating point
of any wood configuration be held at 56 °C for 30 minutes. Consider hot air heating of
wooden boards that maintains their surface temperature at 70 °C. The boards are
stacked outside and in the winter time they can be considered to be at 0 °C when they
are brought in for heating. The thermal diffusivity of the wood is 9*10-8 m?/s.
