Consider a conduction in a plane composite wall as shown. The outer hotter air temperature at 60 C whose convective heat transfer coefficient of 1000 W / m^2 K while the colder side at 24 C with heat transfer coefficient of 750 W / m^2 K. There is 5 C drop of temperature between air and wall surface at both hotter and colder side. The temperatures at the interfaces are 45 C and 40 C. Find the thermal conductivity of wall B.
