Problem Wall with Strip Heater The air inside a chamber is measured to be 50C and used to convectively heat a wall (h 20 w/m2 K). The wall (thermal conductivity of 4 W/m K) is 200 mm thick and has a uniform heat generation of 1000 W/m2. To prevent any heat generated within the wall from being lost to the outside of the chamber a very thin electrical strip heater is placed on the outer wall to provide a uniform...
