Hi guys,
I am newbie on thread and currently working on a project
I need some help on the Heat flow on multiple walls.
Here is the setup (see figure below)
The first wall is a Steel material which has a 350C temperature(1kwatts) and the an Air Gap is present then followed by a Plastic wall which is required to have around 60C (30watts)
350C(1kwatts)--> |(Steel)|--- |Air Gap| ----|(Plastic)|--->60C(30watts)
The goal for me is to know or get thickness/distance of the Air gap between the Steel and Plastic so to reduce the Heat or Temperature leaving the Plastic wall at 60C
I was trying to use and figure out the solution using the formula
dQ/dT = AΔT/(L1/k1+L2/k2+L3/k3) but was stuck
Any advise here?
