As a designer working for a major electric appliance manufacturer, you are required to estimate the amount of fiberglass insulation packing (k = 0.035 W/m K) that is needed for a kitchen oven shown in the figure below. The fiberglass layer is to be sandwiched between a 2-mm-thick aluminum cladding plate on the outside and a 5-mm-thick stainless steel plate on the inside that forms the core of the oven. The insulation thickness is such that the outside cladding temperature does not exceed 40C when the temperature at the inside surface of the oven is 300C. Also, the air temperature in the kitchen varies from 15Cto33C, and the average heat transfer coefficient between the outer surface of the oven and air is estimated to be 12.0W/m2K. Determine the thickness of the fiberglass insulation that is required for these conditions. What would be the outer surface temperature when the inside surface of the oven is at 475C?

Hello, I have been having trouble analyzing the following situation related to the field of Heat Transfer; I am needing to find the heat transfer rate through the given wall in Watts (shown in attached image): A wall consists of four different materials, A, B, C, and D as shown. The thermal conductivities of A, B, C, and D are 1, 5, 10, and 15 W/(mK), respectively. The inner surface of the wall is maintained at 60 oC, and the outside temperature is 20 oC. The convective coefficient for the outside air is 20 W/(m2K). The area of A, B, and C is 0.3 m2, and each is of equal thickness. Area D has an area of 0.1 m2 and thickness of 45 cm. I know some equations that can be used to solve this problem using the thermal circuits concept, but those equations require knowing the additional information about the temperature of the inside air or the surface temperature of the outside wall. Could you please help me determine what methods needed to solve this problem that I am missing? Thank you.
