Task 01 An industrial freezer is designed to operate with an internal air temperature of -20 0C  when the external air temperature is 25 0C  and the internal and external heat transfer coefficients are 12 W/m2K  and 8 W/m2K  , respectively. The walls of the freezer are composite construction, comprising of an inner layer of plastic ( k=1 W/m.K , and the thickness of 3 mm) , and an outer layer of  stainless steel  (k=16 W/m.K  , and thickness of 1mm). Sandwiched between these two layers is a layer of insulation material with k=0.07 W/m.K and the thickness of 195mm. Find the overall heat transfer coefficient and determine the heat transfer through the industrial freezer.
