Problem
For a flat slab of material with thermal conductivity k and surface area A separating two environments differing in temperature by ΔT, the designer wishes to limit the steady-state conduction power to P. Write an algebraic expression for the required slab thickness L in terms of k, A, ΔT, and P.
