The diagram below shows a composite wall 1 m deep. The first layer of thickness LA is made of special refractory material (kA=0.50 W/m.K). The second layer, 0.30 m thick, consists of insulating material A (kB=0.1 W/m.K) and insulating material B (kC = 0.35 W/m.K). The temperature on the inner face of A (Tsup) is equal to 900°C and the ambient temperature (Tamb) is equal to 25°C. The heat transfer coefficient h is equal to 10 W/m².K.
