Thermal Conductivity Problems: a. A wall is made of firebrick 6 inches thick and has a 50°C difference in temperature both sides. Calculate the heat transferred through the wall if the thermal conductivity of the brick is 0.65 BTU/hr-ft- oF. b. Compute the amount of heat flow per second through an iron plate 2 cm thick and the area of 5000 cm² if one face has a temperature of 150°C and the other face is 140°C? The thermal conductivity for iron is 80 W/m-K.

Conduction and Convection

When energy travels from one object to another it is said to have undergone heat transfer. Heat transfer is nothing but the transfer of thermal energy or internal energy from one thing to another, like e.g., when a vessel with water, kept on top of a burner, heats up because of the flame underneath it.
