Abstract
This paper addresses heat transfer across the wall of the dividing wal l column. Heat flows through the column are analysed and used to ident ify regions of the wall at which the horizontal heat transfer has bene ficial and detrimental effects. The results of a case study show that energy savings of the order of 10% are possible by installing insulati on at the appropriate part of the dividing wall.
