The wall of an industrial furnace is constructed from 0.3 m thick fireclay brick having a thermal conductivity of 1.2 W/m/K. Measurements made during steady-state operation reveal temperatures of 1166 and 1013 K at the inner and outer surfaces, respectively. What is the rate of heat transfer through the wall (from inner surface to outer surface) if the cross sectional area of the wall is 4.0 m^2?
