Question
Two large steel plates at temperature of 90°C and
70°C are separated by a steel rod 2.5 cm diameter
and 0.25 m long. The rod is welded to each plate.
The space between the plates is filled with insulation
which also insulates the circumference of the rod.
Because of voltage difference between the two plates
current flows through the rod and the electrical
energy is dissipated at a rate of 10 W. Determine
the maximum temperature in the rod and the heat
flux at each end. Proceed to compare the net heat
flow rate of the two ends with the total rate of
heat generation.
Thermal conductivity for the rod material is
42.5 W/m-deg.
