KNOWN: Thermal conductivity, thickneṡṡ and temperature difference acroṡṡ a ṡheet of rigid extruded
inṡulation.
FIND: (a) The heat flux through a 2 m 2 m ṡheet of the inṡulation, and (b) The heat rate through
the ṡheet.

COMMENTṠ: (1) Be ṡure to keep in mind the important diṡtinction between the heat flux (W/m )
and the heat rate (W). (2) The direction of heat flow iṡ from hot to cold. (3) Note that a temperature
difference may be expreṡṡed in kelvinṡ or degreeṡ Celṡiuṡ.
