In one such insulation cork board is used as lagging for the concrete to reduce heat transfer from the surroundings to the room. The temperature at the wall surface inside the cold room is kept at 1 C to ensure the preservation of the food material being stored. (a) Calculate the heat loss per unit area of the concrete wall if there is no insulation and the wall thickness is 210mm. (6) Calculate the thickness of the cork necessary to ensure that the energy loss from the bare concrete is reduced by 95%.
