Question
Show that, when steady state is reached, the temperature T, at
the interface of a composite slab, consisting of two different
materials with R values R, and R,, is:
RTh +R2T.
Tx
R +R2
where T, is the temperature on the outer surface of the first slab
(R value R,) and T, is the temperature on the outer surface of
the other slab (R value R).
