Consider steady one-dimensional heat flow in a plate of $$20mm$$ thickness with a uniform heat generation of $$80MW/{m^3}.$$ The left and right faces are kept at constant temperatures of $${160^0}C$$ and $${120^0}C$$ respectively. The plate has a constant thermal conductivity of $$200W/mK.$$

The location of maximum temp within the plate from left face is

Building has to be maintained at $${21^ \circ }C$$ (dry bulb) and $${14.5^ \circ }C$$ (wet bulb). The dew point temp under these conditions is $${10.17^0}C$$. The outside temp is $$ - {23^0}C$$ (dry bulb) and internal and external surface heat transfer coefficients are $$8\,\,W/{m^2}K$$ and $$23$$ $$W/{m^2}K$$ respectively. If the building wall has a thermal conductivity of $$1.2$$ $$W/mK,$$ the minimum thickness (m) of wall required to prevent condensation is
