6. The temperature at the inner and outer surfaces of a boiler wall made of 20 mm
thick steel and covered with an insulating material of 5 mm thickness are 3000 C and 500
C respectively. If the thermal conductivities of steel and insulating material are
58W/m0C and 0.116 W/m0C respectively, determine the rate of flow through the boiler
wall.
L1 = 20 x 10-3 m
kı = 58 W/m0C
L2 = 5 x 10-3 m
k2 = 0.116 W/m0C
T1 = 3000 C
T2 = 500 C
