Question
Problem 8.
Energy is generated uniformly in a 20cm thick wall the steady state temperature
distribution of the wall is indicated on the table below;
z (cm)
T (C)
8 10 12 14 16 18 20
0 2 4 6
150 177 205 230 250 272 292 310 330 345 360
If thermal conductivity of the wall is 15 W/m.K and the indicated temperatures are in °C,
determine the average rate of heat generation in unit volume.
