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. InsideABDсOutside

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.
