  1. A plane wall has a thermal conductivity of 1.15 W/mK. If the inner surface is at 1100°C and the outer surface is at 350°C, then the design thickness (in meter) of the wall to maintain a steady heat flux of 2500 W/m2 should be
    1. 0.345 m.
    2. 0.245 m.
    3. 1.145 m.
    4. 1.345 m.
Correct Option: A

Q = KA
