The composite wall of an oven consists of three materials, two of which are of known thermal conductivity, kA = 25 W/m ⋅ K and kC = 60 W/m ⋅ K, and known thickness, LA = 0.40 m and LC = 0.20 m. The third material, B, which is sandwiched between materials A and C, is of known thickness, LB = 0.20 m, but unknown thermal conductivity kB. Under steady-state operating conditions, measurements reveal an outer surface temperature of Ts,o = 20°C, an inner surface temperature of Ts,i = 600°C, and an oven air temperature of T∞ = 800°C. The inside convection coefficient h is known to be 25 W/m2 ⋅K. Neglecting convection transfer effect, what is the value of kB?

Question

The composite wall of an oven consists of three materials, two of which are of
known thermal conductivity, kA = 25 W/m ⋅ K and kC = 60 W/m ⋅ K, and known
thickness, LA = 0.40 m and LC = 0.20 m. The third material, B, which is sandwiched
between materials A and C, is of known thickness, LB = 0.20 m, but unknown
thermal conductivity kB. Under steady-state operating conditions, measurements
reveal an outer surface temperature of Ts,o = 20°C, an inner surface temperature of
Ts,i = 600°C, and an oven air temperature of T∞ = 800°C. The inside convection coefficient h is known to be 25 W/m2 ⋅K. Neglecting convection transfer effect,
what is the value of kB?
