Transcribed Image Text:An insulated composite rod is formed of two parts arranged end to end, and both halves are of
equal length. Part a has thermal conductivity ka, for 0 srs1/2, and part b has thermal
conductivity kb, for 1/2 sxs1. The nondimensional transient heat conduction equations that
describe the temperature u over the length x of the composite rod are:
