A planar wall is 20 cm thick with an area of 2 m^2 and has a thermal conductivity of 2 W · m^−1 · K^−1. If the temperature difference between the two sides of the wall is 200°C, then the magnitude of the rate of heat flow across the wall at steady-state conditions is _________ W.

A plane wall 15 – cm thick has a thermal conductivity given by the relation k = 2.0 + 0.0005 T, W/m – K where T is in Kelvin. If one surface of this wall is maintained at 150 oC and the other at 50 oC, determine the rate of heat transfer per square meter. Sketch the temperature distribution through the wall.
