We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

This file is saved on a school computer and the school is closed today so I don't have access to it. The model looks like the picture I've attached.

To the left surface I applied:

Ambient temperature,  T=68 F
Thermal conductivity, k=1.0 BTU/hr.ft.F

To the right surface I applied:
Ambient termperature, T=15 F
Thermal conductivity, k=0.85 BTU/hr.ft.F

The questions also mentions the heat transfer coeficient for each surface.
Left surface, U=1.46 BTU/hr.ft^2.F
Right surface, U=6.0 BTU/hr.ft^2.F



Let me know if this works or if I need the file. I may be able to get it from someone.
