Coal powder is held in a large container. The thickness of the coal powder layer is L = 2 m. The effective thermal conductivity of the coal powder is k = W/mK. The heat transfer coefficient between the upper surface of the powder (at x = L) and the surrounding air is h= 5 W/m2K. The surrounding air is at Tamb = 20ºC.
