Question: 1 . A plane wall ( k = 2 W / m . K , = 9 . 9 1 0 7 m 2 /

1. A plane wall (k =2 W/m.K, =9.9107 m2/s) of thickness 30 cm is initially at a temperature of
293 K. One side of the wall is insulated. At t =0, the other side of the wall is exposed to a hot gas at 780K. Estimate the time for the insulated surface to reach 600 K if the average convection heat transfer coefficient between the wall and the hot gas is:
(a)50 W/ m2.K
(b)500 W/m2.K.
