A small refrigerator freezer, 16 in x 16 in x 18 in outer dimensions, has an inside surface temperature of 10ºF and an outside surface temperature of 80ºF. If the walls are uniformly 3 inches thick, homogeneous, and with thermal properties the same as Styrofoam, estimate the heat transfer through the walls and door of the refrigerator.
