A 2.5-cm-thick sheet of plastic (k2:42 W/mK) is to be bonded to a 5-cm-thick aluminum plate. The glue that will accomplish the bonding is to be held at a temperature of 325 K to achieve the best adherence, and the heat to accomplish this bonding is to be provided by a radiant source. The convective heat-transfer coefficient on the outside surfaces of both the plastic and aluminum is 12 W/m2K, and the surrounding air is at 295 K. What is the required heat flux if it is applied to the surface of (a) the plastic? (b) the aluminium?
