The surface temperature of the hot side of the furnace wall is 1200°C. It is desired to maintain the outside of
the wall at 38°C. A 152 mm refractory silica is used adjacent to the combustion chamber and 10 mm of steel
covers the outside. What thickness of insulating bricks is necessary between refractory and steel, If the heat
loss should be kept at 788 W/m2? use k = 13.84 W/m-K fro refractory silica; 0.15 for insulating brick, and 45
for steel.
